Am Bm C
F E     (x2)

[Verse]
  Am
A curtain call
Bm             C               F
 The wings are waiting for the night to fall
                E
Spread over the stage
      Am
Can’t keep me out
Bm           C                    F
 I’ve always pummeled through the doors of doubt
                  Ab
Power through the plagues

[Pre-Chorus]
Am
Wit for pace
                     Ab
This riddle’s just a race
Am
Old self pities
                    Eb     E
Cleanse this city’s waste

[Chorus]
         Am
I am the night
         C
A tyrant of the shade
         F
I am the spite
         Dm     E
I am the pain repaid
         Am
I am the night
  E                                F
A fear that lies in shadows cannot fade
          Dm    E
Crush the light
         Am
I am the night

[Instrumental]
Am F E Eb

[Verse]
Am
Listening
Bm          C              F
 The ripple of a heartbeat quickening
                E
Fear behind the eyes
  Am
Uneasy prey
Bm          C                F
 The broken bones litter the alleyways
                Ab
Terror from the skies

[Pre-Chorus]
Am
Check my head
                      Ab
I guess the joke’s on me
Am
I’m not laughing
          Eb   E
At the irony

[Chorus]
         Am
I am the night
         C
A tyrant of the shade
         F
I am the spite
         Dm     E
I am the pain repaid
         Am
I am the night
  E                                F
A fear that lies in shadows cannot fade
          Dm    E
Crush the light
         Am
I am the night

[Interlude]
Am F E Eb  (x2)

    F#m
The chill
D                   Db                C
 Of the shadow that lurks inside this mind
   Am
It builds
F                         E                Eb
 Breathe the fear out and face it one last time

[Chorus]
         Am
I am the night
         C
A tyrant of the shade
         F
I am the spite
         Dm     E
I am the pain repaid
         Am
I am the night
  E                                F
A fear that lies in shadows cannot fade
          Dm    E
Crush the light
         Am
I am the night

[Outro]
Am C                     F      Dm E
     And now the joke is on me
Am C                     F      Dm E
     And now the joke is on me
         Am
I am the night
