C Am
As a child I would wake at night
C Am
I was scared, but I kept real quiet
F Am
Shadows on the walls moving in on me
C Am F
And underneath my sheets I could barely breathe
C Am
And your room was only just across a hall
C Am
All it would have taken was a single call
F Am
And maybe sometimes we've got to trust ourselves
C Am F
Not to scream out loud and run like hell
Dm Am G
Believe me, all the days you're unsure
Dm Am G
Believe in me, I don't want to anymore
Dm Am G
And in the dark, picture me in your mind
Dm
And I'll lay with you
C G
You don't ever be scared at night
C~ G F C~ G F
C Am
As a young man you were shooting rats
C Am
By accident, you hit the farmyard cat
F Am
He ran for the fields and came back the next day
C Am F
You had blown out his eye and you could see his brain
C Am
Your dad said, "Boy, there are some things in life
C Am
You don't want to do, but you know is right
F Am
So take him out back and finish him off"
C Am F
You got your gun off the shelf, it only took one shot
Dm Am G
Believe me, all the days you're unsure
Dm Am G
Believe in me, I don't want to anymore
Dm Am G
And in the dark, picture me in your mind
Dm
And I'll lay with you
C G
So you don't ever be scared at night
C~ G F C~ G F
C Am
And I flew to Winnipeg on your final day
C Am
They said that you waited 'til I came
F Am
We sang your favourite hymns and we held your hand
C F
You took your final breath and that was that
C Am
But I'd never seen a person die before
C Am
I tried so hard not to cry, you know
F Am
'Cause maybe sometimes we've got to trust ourselves
C Am F
That when you die you go someplace else
Dm Am G
Believe me, all the days you're unsure
Dm Am G
Believe in me, I don't want to anymore
Dm Am G
And in the dark, picture me in your mind
Dm
And I'll lay with you
Am G Dm
You don't ever be scared at night
Am G Dm
You don't ever be scared at night
C G C~ G F C~ G F~ C
You don't ever be scared at night
