Dimming Of The Day Teclado

	   
This old house is falling down around my ears 
C                 G           D 
I'm drowning in a river of my tears 
     G                                 D 
When all my will is gone, you hold me sway 
C                 G       D      G 
I need you at the dimming of the day. 
 
D                                      A 
You pull me like the moon pulls on the tide 
D                                    A    D G C 
You know just where I keep my better side
 
G                                   D 
What days have come to keep us far apart? 
C                 G           D 
A broken promise or a broken heart 
G                                        D 
Now all the morning birds have wheeled away 
C                 G       D      G 
I need you at the dimming of the day 
 
CHORUS 2: 
D                                 A 
Come the night you're only what I want 
D                                 A      D G C 
Come the night you could be my confidant----- 
 
G                                 D 
I see you on the street and in company 
      C                G                   D 
Why don't you come and ease your mind with me 
G                                 D 
I'm living for the night we steal away 
C                 G       D      G 
I need you at the dimming of the day 
C                 G       D      G 
I need you at the dimming of the 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.
