Em... G... G... Em... C\G. G. G... Em G Em See the leaves up on the trees Em G D Lining all the cobbled streets Em Cadd9 With their colors of a dying sun D Em But all the colors of the seas D Am G6 Wouldn't mean a thing to me Em Cause it's only gray that I see G Am But I know I'm not the only one Em G Or, I think I'm not the only one
G C\G And I'm going to keep my heart G6 To myself G6 D You're going to need some strength Em In the end G Am C\B C D G To make it through the night into day
Em G Em All those people that walk strong Em G D Without the guts to sing along Em Cadd9 Everyone singing private odes to joy D Em But here it's dreadfully quiet D Am G6 When I don't know what to sing G Am Makes me feel like the loneliest boy Em G Makes me feel like I'm the only one
And I'm going to keep my heart To myself You're going to need some strength In the end To make it through the night into day
Em G Em The wallflower stands alone Em G D Just barely whispering his tone Em Cadd9 Cause all his pleasures come with guilt D Em And if we both weren't made of stone D Am G6 We could make it on our own Em Now we'll settle in this house we've built
But I'm going to keep my heart To myself You're going to need some strength In the end To make it through the night into day
Em G Em And my princess in the tower Em G D With her parties every hour Em Cadd9 For the angels and the choir boys D Em Serves her good friends bitter flowers D Am G6 Leaving all the angels sour Em Wishing they could steal her voice
Em Am And the enemies she keeps Em Close by her feet Em G Em Don't know if she loves them for real Am She will go to bed with her lover Em And kill him in his sleep G C Then go on television to weep
And she's going to keep her heart To herself I'm going to need some strength In the end To make it through the night into day D Em G Oh, to make it through the night Em... G... Em. G. G... Em... C\G... G... C\G. Em. G... C\G. G. C\G. G. Em... G...
