Verse
F Dm
Stumble on to the pavement; they're strapped tight to bed
Gm
They've got a fetish for sheep, straitjacket sheets
C C/E F
But I've got Randy Newman in my head
Dm
This is no corn-fed day, it's gloomy, blue, and cold
Dm/F Gm
So let the muggings occur, I feel secure
C
They say that I'm peculiar
[Chorus]
A# Dm C
And oh I don't know, I don't care
C A#
I'll be waiting for you there
Dm C
Crave this chill, bathe in black
A#
All the ghouls and fiends attack
Dm C A#
Knees go weak, and I swoon, underneath the pallid moon
Dm C
Praise the night, oh, praise the night
C F
The only time I feel alright
[Verse]
F Dm
Under the sun gods stare, I wince and blossom hives
Gm
Counting the fractions of day, rotting away
C F

Dm
But when the stars once shy, come bloom and blanket earth
Gm
I feel beloved and blessed, quite Byron-esque
C

[Chorus]
A# Dm C
And oh I don't know, I don't care
C A#
I'll be waiting for you there
Dm C
Crave this chill, bathe in black
A#
All the ghouls and fiends attack
Dm C A#
Eyes erupt, and I swoon, underneath the pallid moon
Dm C
Praise the night, oh, praise the night
C F
The only time I feel alright
[Solo]
F Dm Gm C
F Dm Gm C
Ooh...
[Chorus]
A# Dm C
And oh I don't know, I don't care
C A#
I'll be waiting for you there
Dm C
Crave this chill, bathe in black
A#
All the ghouls and fiends attack
Dm C A#
Head combusts, and I swoon, underneath the pallid moon
Dm C
Praise the night, oh, praise the night
C F
The only time I feel alright
