If the Night Lyrics

(Chris Darrow)
by KALEIDOSCOPE
from Side Trips, 1967
Intro: Em D Em D
1st verse:
If the night proves too black for you
And its mysteries hide your kiss that's meant to fool
Chorus:
Your way of life has left its mark, that's clear
Life for you is cheap while my mind's near
Verse 2:
You played your tricks and now I've seen your game
You seek love and grasp it as a poor man who seeks fame
(aahs over chorus chords)
Verse 3:
Your cheating kind has had its hold on me
And belief in a love that turned out not to be
(chorus, ends on Em)
