Intro: C G Em G Em Bm  Am
       D C Bm

Am             G               Em
Hold back the night from us,
            G                 Em
Cherish the light for us,
              Bm                    Am        D
Don't let the shadows hold back the dawn.


C         G                   Em
Cold city lights glowing,
               g                      Em
The traffic of life is flowing,
             Bm                 Am              Bm  B
Out over the rivers and on into dark.

    Em         D                  C
I'm going down town where there's music,
    Em          D               C
I'm going where voices fill the air,
Em            D               C
Maybe there's someone waiting for me
       C           Em            Bm     B
With a smile and a flower in her hair

   Em         D                  C
I'm going down town where there's people
    Em         D            C
The loneliness hangs in the air.
     Em           D            C
With no-one there real waiting for me,
   C         Em       Bm        D  C
No smile, no flower nowhere.

Cold city lights glowing,
               G                   Em
The traffic of life is flowing,
             Bm                 Am       D
Out over the rivers and on into dark.

C             G                Em
Hold back the night from us,
            G                 Em
Cherish the light for us,

Don't let the shadows hold back the dawn.
