My Name Is The Night Color Me Black Chords by Brian Fallon
[Intro]
A E D A
[Verse]
A
Can you give me something?
E
Tonight, I'm so alone
F#m D
The moon is upside down, hanging on a telephone
A E
But I remember every little bad dream
F#m D
Every pretty slow dance
[Pre-Chorus]
F#m D A E
So can I pick you up later? (When your temperature's better)
F#m D A E
If you need a little shelter (Be your cool operator)
F#m D A E
Keep it all quiet, yeah (Just a little longer)
F#m D A E
Let the night wind you down, baby, down
[Chorus]
A E
And she smiles, how about that?
F#m D
I was just about to jump before you called me back
A E
And you know the pain comes home
F#m D
And the whispers come to call me in my bed when I'm alone
A E
And I've lost so much more than I ever had
F#m D
Now my name is the night, honey,
A E
color me black
D A
C-color me black
[Verse]
A
Can I take you somewhere?
E
Would it make a difference?
F#m D
Like pretty roses on a deathbed
A E
But I remember you in your white dress
F#m D
In your mama's hands
[Pre-Chorus]
F#m D A E
So can I pick you up later? (When your temperature's better)
F#m D A E
If you need a little shelter (Be your cool operator)
F#m D A E
Keep it all quiet, yeah (Just a little longer)
F#m D A E
Let the night wind us down, baby, down
[Chorus]
A E
And she smiles, how about that?
F#m D
I was just about to jump before you called me back
A E
And you know the pain comes home
F#m D
And the whispers come to call me in my bed when I'm alone
A E
And I've lost so much more than I ever had
F#m D
Now my name is the night, honey,
A E
color me black
D A
C-color me black
[Bridge]
F#m D
And how long, how long
A E
until you believe that part of me is gone?
F#m D
With your sweet, naive kiss
A E
I used to feel the same until I let the darkness in
F#m D
And it costs me nothing, baby, not nothing more than this
A E
Nothing more than this useless heart in my chest
F#m D
Nothing that I needed, nothing I regret
A E
Nothing that I needed, and I'd do it all again
D A
I'd do it all again
[Chorus]
A E
And she smiles, how about that?
F#m D
I was just about to jump before you called me back
A E
But you know the pain comes home
F#m D
And the whispers come to call me in my bed when I'm alone
A E
Singing, "Ooh, not just yet"
F#m D
When I go, I'll be going out in flames and fiery reds
A E
And the quiet to me, such an ominous sound
F#m D
Said my name is the nighttime now
A E
Yes, the quiet to me, such an ominous sound
F#m D
And my name is the night, honey, color me black
