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
Dm                             Am                  
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
                              Dm
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

Dm7           Em7   F       G
There goes a loser, another loser gone
Dm7           Em7   F       G
There goes another, another who's alone
Dm7           Em7   F       G          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
Dm7           Em7   F       G
There goes a loser, another loser gone
Dm7           Em7   F       G
There goes another, another who's alone
Dm7           Em7   F       G          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
Dm7           Em7   F       G
There goes a loser, another loser gone
Dm7           Em7   F       G
There goes another, another who's alone
Dm7           Em7   F       G          Am
There goes a loser, another loser gone wild


Am          Dm
Icy fingers touching you.
Am            Dm
Silent voices calling too
Am                    Em    Dm                          Am
What else is there to lose- I am here but where are you?
