Dimming of the Day Bonnie Raitt
DIMMING OF THE DAY- Bonnie Raitt
[G]This old house is falling down around my [D]ears
[C]I'm drowning in a [G]river of my [D]tears
When [G]all my will is gone, you hold me s[D]way
[C]I need you at the [G]dimming [D]of the [G]day.
CHORUS:
[D]You pull me like the moon pulls on the [A]tide
[D]You know just where I keep my better [A]side-[D]--[G]--[C]
[G]What days have come to keep us far a[D]part?
[C]A broken promise o[G]r a broken h[D]eart
[G]Now all the morning birds have wheeled aw[D]ay
[C]I need you at the [G]dimming [D]of the [G]day
CHORUS 2:
[D]Come the night you're only what I [A]want
[D]Come the night you could be my con[A]fidant-[D]--[G]--[C]
[G]I see you on the street and in com[D]pany
Why do[C]n't you come and [G]ease your mind with [D]me
[G]I'm living for the night we steal [D]away
[C]I need you at the [G]dimming [D]of the [G]day
[C]I need you at the [G]dimming [D]of the [G]day
NOTE: This is actually orignially a Richard Thompson song,
but the Bonnie Raitt version has changed the key and
reordered some of the words.
