Victims of the Night Lee Hazlewood
Hmmm the searchi[C]n' fingers of the dawn [F]
Are [G]slowly creepin' up the eastern s[C]ky
So I won't disturb your [F]sleep
And I'll just [G]touch your cheek and leave without[C] goodbye
Hmm but [F]if you find regrets are waitin' for ya
In the early mornin' light
Ah, [G]don't blame yourself and [F]don't blame me
For [G]we were only [F]victims of the nig[C]ht[Bb] [F] [C] [Bb] [F]
[C]Before you cuss the morning[F] sun just pause
And [G]wonder are we really wrong[C]
How many other lovers ar[F]e awaking
to face [G]their own gray [C]dawn
And they[F] must also answer probin' questions
When the morning killed the night
Yeah[G] should they regret or co[F]uld it be
We a[G]ll were only [F]victims of the nig[C]ht[Bb] [F] [C] [Bb] [F]
[C]As I leave you now you're s[F]milin'
And [G]I know that I'm gonna remember y[C]ou that way
I don't need hasty promi[F]ses to cling to
As I[G] go to face that da[C]y
I only h[F]ope that I'll awake to find the embers
Still are burning bright
And [G]perhaps someday I'll find[F] you and be grateful
We w[G]ere victims o[F]f the night[C] [Bb] [F] [C] [Bb] [F]
