Song For A Stormy Night

The [Em] rain beats hard at my [Bm] window

 While [C] you, so softly do [G] sleep

 And [Am] you can’t hear the cold [Em] wind blow

 [Am] You are sleeping [B] so deep

 

 Out[Em]side its dark, the [Bm] moon hiding

 By [C] starlight only I [G] see

 The [Am] hosts of the night-time go [Em] riding

 But [Am] you are safe here [D] with me

 

 So, [G] while the world out there is [Bm] sleeping

 And [C] everyone wrapped up so [G] tight

 Oh, [Am] I am a vigil here [Em] keeping

 [F] On this stormy [D] night

 I [G] promised I always would [Bm] love you

 If [C] skies would be grey or be [Em] blue

 I [Am] whisper the prayer now [Em] above you

 That [Am] there will always be [Bm] you

 

 Some[Em]times, we're just like the [Bm] weather

 [C] Changing by day after [G] day

 As [Am] long as we'll be toge[Em]ther

 [Am] Storms will pass [Bm] away

 

 I [Em] said I would guard and [Bm] protect you

 [C] Keep you free from all [G] harm

 And [Am] if life should ever [Em] reject you

 That [Am] love would weather each [D] storm

 

 So, [G] while the world out there is [Bm] sleeping

 And [C] everyone wrapped up so [G] tight

 Oh, [Am] I am a vigil here [Em] keeping

 [F] On this stormy [D] night

 I [G] promised I always would [Bm] love you

 If [C] skies would be grey or be [Em] blue

 I [Am] whisper the prayer now [Em] above you

 That [Am] there will always be [Bm] you

 

 Short Break:

 

 [Em] Soon, I know you'll be [Bm] waking,

 [C] Ask did I sleep- did I [G] write?

 And [Am] I'll just say I was [Em] making

 A [Am] song... for a [Bm] stormy [Em] night.
