[Intro] Gm7  Bb7+  F  C

Gm7                                             Bb7+
   Theres an old man living in the back of your woods tonight
     F                                    C
You forgot he was even there, but you've never slipped his mind
Gm7                                          Bb7+
   Hes living off of scraps of you you never knew you left behind
            F                               C
And as the sun goes down, he rises with a smile

                             Eb
Hes waiting on the night to fall
                        Bb
The old mans coming to call
   F                            Gm7
You dont see the writing on the wall
                            Eb
Hell never step out in the light
                       Bb
No, he's just biding time
               F                                  D
And while you slumber, hes gonna come and take it all
                             Eb   Gm
Hes waiting on the night to fall
                             F    C
Hes waiting on the night to fall

Gm7                                              Bb7+
   He knows you have the answers, but truth lies dusty on your shelf
          F                                              C
And the sword that you could slay him with has become an ornament and nothing else
          Gm7                                                   Bb7+
You could put him back down in his hole in the ground, but he knows you never will
            F                                  C
He's been around so long you got used to the smell

                             Eb
Hes waiting on the night to fall
                        Bb
The old mans coming to call
   F                            Gm7
You dont see the writing on the wall
                            Eb
Hell never step out in the light
                       Bb
No, he's just biding time
               F                                  D
And while you slumber, hes gonna come and take it all
                             Eb   Gm
Hes waiting on the night to fall
                             F    C
Hes waiting on the night to fall

               Eb
He knows hell never have your soul
             Bb
But he will gladly rob you blind
             F                                    C
While youre feasting at his table, hell tie your hands and numb your mind
               Eb
Hell take you farther than you wanna go
               Bb
Hell keep you longer than you wanna stay
             F                                        C
And it will cost you more than you ever thought youd pay

                             Eb
Hes waiting on the night to fall
                        Bb
The old mans coming to call
   F                            Gm7
You dont see the writing on the wall
                            Eb
Hell never step out in the light
                       Bb
No, he's just biding time
               F                                  D
And while you slumber, hes gonna come and take it all

                              Gm7  Eb Bb C
He's waiting on the night to fall
                              Gm7  Eb Bb C
He's waiting on the night to fall

( Gm7  Eb  Bb  C )
