Lyrics

Evening of Darkness
(© 1975-76, Rick Moody)

Em D
And the evening of the darkness is
C D
coming
Em D
And the people of the evening are
C D
running
Em D
And the Children of the Light are
C D
forsaken
Em D
Cause their eyes have been dimmed
C Em
by the vision, of the world

Em D C D
But her eyes they shone out of softness
Em D
And her touch felt like fire cooled by
C D
kindness
Em D
And her voice cut between all the
C D
memories
Em D C
Of the world as it was long before, in
Em
my mind

Em D
And the morning of the darkness was
C D
leaving
Em D
And the people of the evening were
C D
singing
Em D
And there’s no telling who had the
C D
wisdom
Em D
Cause their eyes had been filled by the
C Em
vision, of her soul
