Intro: Am Dm Am Dm Am Dm Am Dm



Am                            Dm

I don't mind the pain, or the jokers' cold refrain

Am                             Dm

The days pass by so slowly, I count them all again

Am                       Em

Silence of a basement, shades all closed at noon

Em            G        Am/Em                    

Lie awake for fear of strangers



(Same as Above unless noted)

Darkness comes on slowly, twilight is the ecstasy

Like a candle burning bright, shadows dance until the night

Empty rooms and chilling smiles

Em             G

They go on for miles and miles





        C          G                Am       F          

Chorus: But in the evening when the sun goes down

C              G              Am       F

Crawl from the shadows got to get into town

          C        G           Am         F

Where the music is playin' all across the night

C         G          Am         F

And every cloud disappears from sight



Am    F      G       G       F    Em                

There goes a loser, another loser gone

Am    F      G       Em      F    G

There goes another, another who's alone

Em           F        Em    F           Am

There goes a loser, another loser gone wild





(Same as Verse 2)

I don't mind if violins don't play

I won't listen to them anyway

I don't care what people say

Some things just can't be arranged





        C          G                Am       F          

Chorus: But in the evening when the sun goes down

C              G              Am       F

Crawl from the shadows got to get into town

          C        G           Am         F

Where the music is playin' all across the night

Am    F      G       G       F    Em                

There goes a loser, another loser gone

Am    F      G       Em      F    G

There goes another, another who's alone

Em           F        Em    F           Am

There goes a loser, another loser gone wild



        C          G                Am       F          

Chorus: But in the evening when the sun goes down

C              G              Am       F

Crawl from the shadows got to get into town

          C        G           Am         F

Where the music is playin' all across the night

C         G          Am         F

And every cloud disappears from sight

Am    F      G       G       F    Em                

There goes a loser, another loser gone

Am    F      G       Em      F    G

There goes another, another who's alone

Em           F        Em    F           Am

There goes a loser, another loser gone wild





Am          Dm

Icy fingers touching you.

Am            Dm

Silent voices calling too

     Am               Em    Em                      G 

What else is there to lose- I am here but where are you?
