    D         G              A
Well nighttime passes but the dark remains

         G                                    A
And I was feeling like a little child but I am loathe to place blame

     D             G              A
On my lioness-esque woman who will go here unnamed

       G                                 A                     D     G     A
She was looking in me for a lion when she found it so tame (oh)

       D             G                  A
On that erstwhile may morning I took the six downtown to Spring

         G                                A
And I was writing something elegiac that I never learned to sing

     D            G              A
But I think it was this song just four years premature

       G                             A
And I remember crossing out the line 'All is fair in love and war'


       D      G       D        A
Well if all is fair in love and war

    Bm      C#m/D        D            G
Then I don't know what we are fighting for


                       D    G                   D          C#m/D
'Cause my baby,..!! she's a real peach even when the night come crashin' down

D    G             Em        D          C   Am

Real peach and the nighttime rolls away,..!! alright
                                          D       G       A
And we're comin' back to the demon-killing work of love (my god)


    D         G              A
Well nighttime passes and the dark retreats

         G                          A
I hand it over to my upper angel who visits me in sleep

            D                G                       A
We're in the field beyond the right and wrong and the fallacy of form

            G                                          A
Well you can call it what you wanna call it I just say "All is fair in love and war"


       D      G       D        A
Well if all is fair in love and war

    Bm      C#m/D        D            G
Then I don't know what we are fighting for

     D           G      D        A
So if we don't care to fight no more

     Bm   C#m/D            D        G
Let's go upstairs and let's shut the door


                       D    G                   D          C#m/D
'Cause my baby,..!! she's a real peach even when the night come crashin' down

D    G             Em        D          C   Am
Real peach and the nighttime rolls away,..!! alright

                       D    G                   D          C#m/D
'Cause my baby,..!! she's a real peach even when the night come crashin' down

D    G             Em        D          C   Am
Real peach and the nighttime rolls away,..!! alright

                                          D       G           A
And we're comin' back to the demon-killing work of love (my god) illuminate
