This Night Has Opened My Eyes Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
In a [Am]river [Em]the color of [Am]lead[Em]
Im[F]merse [C]the baby's [F]head[G]
Wrap her up [Am]in the n[Em]ews of the world
[Am]Dump[Em] her on a doorstep,[F] girl
[C][F][G]
[Dm]This night has opened my [Am]eyes
And I [G]will never sleep again
[Am]You kicked and c[Em]ried
like a [Am]bullied [Em]child
[F]A gro[C]wn man of twenty five
[F][G]
Oh, he [Am]said he'd cure [Em]your ills
[Am]But he didn'[Em]t and he never will
[F][C][F][G]
[Dm]Oh, save your [Am]life
Because you've only [G]got one

[Chorus 1]
The [F]dream has gone [C]but the baby is real
[G]Oh,[F] you did a good thing
[Dm][F]
[G]She could have been a [F]poet
[C]or she could have been a fool
[G]Oh,[F] you did a bad thing
[Dm][F]
[G]And I'm not [Dm]happy and I'm not sad
[F][C][G]

[Verse 2]
[Am]A shoeless[Em] child on a sw[Am]ing[Em]
Re[F]minds you of [C]your own [F]again
[G]She took away your [Am]troubles[Em]
Oh, but [Am]then [Em]again she left pain
[F][C][F][G]
[Dm]Oh, please save your l[Am]ife
Because you've only [G]got one

[Chorus 2]
The [F]dream has gone [C]but the baby is real
[G]Oh,[F] you did a good thing
[Dm][F]
[G]She could have been a [F]poet
[C]or she could have been a fool
[G]Oh,[F] you did a bad thing
[Dm][F]
[G]And I'm not [Dm]happy and I'm not sad
[F][C][G]

[Outro 1]
[F]Oh [C]la [G]la[F]
[Dm]Ooh[F][G]
[F]Oh [C]la [G]la[F]
[Dm]And [F]I'm [G]not happy[Dm]
and I'm not sad
[F][C][G]
[Repeat and fade]
