Queen of the Night Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][F][Am]
[G][Dm][F]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
Time slips [Am]by
in the [F]hourglass
You can [Am]hear [G]your name
[Dm]Sand [F]slides [Am]through
the stranger's hand
As [F]he deals the game.
All [Am]the candles are burning low
[G]No more cradles and no more snow
Bet your life on [F]a[Dm][G][Am]
[G]lucky roll
Play your queen,
[Dm]you [G]could win your[Am] sou[G]l,
Stakes [Bb]are high you can live or die
To risk [Am]everything.

[Verse 2]
In your [G]goblet the [Eb]wine is [F]black
As a moonless [Fm]night
[G#]Wet your lips be[Bb]fore you kiss
[C]The blazing [Am]light
Bets are off but the game is on,
Drop the armor [F]you counted on
All [Am]your armies [G]are fled and gone
Win [Dm]your king,
[F]you[Am] can play your pawn
Take your time, you have [F]just begun
[Am]To r[G]isk everything.

[Verse 3]
[G]Catch your tears in a golden sieve
Don't regret what you did to
[F]liv[Dm]e[G][Am][G]
Don't forget that you must
for[Dm]give[G]
To [Am]risk everything.

[Verse 4]
[G]Through the window you see the [Bb]storm
That is gathering,
Painted gypsies on dappled
horses are gal[Am]loping
Through the trees in the howling wind
[G]Down the [F]hills to the river bend
Shad[Fm]ow ghosts [Bb]that [C]are blind as [G]night
[E]Shrieking curses against the night,
Daring you to [G]come [F]join their flight
And [E]risk everything.

[Verse 5]
Catch [Dm]your tears in [F]a
golden sieve
Don't re[Em]gret what you did to live
[Dm]Don't forget [C]that [F]you must forgive
To risk everything.

[Verse 6]
[G]There is nothing to hold you now
To your fault or mine
Fallen idols and martyred souls
Are the only kind
[F]Feet [G]of cla[Am]y in the emerald ski[G]es
Birds of prey when the dream
[C]er [G]die[Am]s[G]
Perfect [Bb]crosses perfect
your lies
Burning saints in the flaming skies
Bet your life every [Am]promise dies
All that's left for you to try
Is risking [G]everything.

[Verse 7]
Catch your tears in a [Eb]golden [F]sieve
Don't regret what you did to
[Fm]live
[Bb]Don't forget that you [C]must forgive
To risk everything.
Oooo, Oooo

[Verse 8]
Catch [C]your tears in a golden sieve
Don't re[G]gret [Am]what
you did [G]to live
Don't forget that you must
for[Dm]give.[G]
To [Am]risk [F]everything.

[Verse 9]
[G]Time slips by in the hourglass
You can hear your [F]name
[Dm]Sand [F]slides [G]through the [F]stranger[Am]'s hand
[G]As he deals the game.
All the candles are burn[Dm]ing [G]low
No [Am]more cradles and
no more snow
Bet your [G]life on a lucky roll
Play your queen,
[F]you [Dm]coul[G]d win your soul,
Stakes are high you can live or die
To risk everything.

[Verse 10]
Catch your tears in a golden sieve
Don't re[G]gret what you did to live
Don't [G]forget that you must forgive
To risk everything.
