The Way You Are Tonight by Missy Higgins



  The Way You Are Tonight 


 
 
F
         Gm            Dm
All the faces in the crowd
Bb7                 D#
All the singing long and loud
D#m                Bb Fmaj7 Gm
Celebrations on a midnight clear
C                       Cm   D# F Gm
They set the world alight
 
 
Gm                   Dm
All the fire in the sky
Bb7                  D#
I can see it in your eyes
D#m                          Bb Fmaj7 Gm
And I could love you for a thousand years
C          Cm      Bb
The way you are tonight
 
 
D7                 Gm
See all the tired faces
D7              Gm
Going on their way
F                                  Gm Dm Gm
And in the east there's just the palest line
C                             F
That shows the coming of the day
 
 
        Gm               Dm
As it breaks across the sky
Bb7                  D#
I can see it in your eyes
D#m                     Bb Fmaj7 Gm
I could love you for a thousand years
C           Cm      Bb
The way you are tonight
 
 
        Gm               Dm
As it breaks across the sky
B7                 D#
In the closing of your eyes
D#m                  Bb Fmaj7 Gm
I'll remember for a thousand years
     C                Cm    Bb
The way, the way you are tonight

Intro: Dm Dm7 Dm Am Am7 Am
       Dm Dm7 Dm Am G
 
 
       Dm                  Dm7               Am Am7 Am
So the floodgates open but nothing comes out 
 
    Dm                      Dm7              Am G
I'm feeling no relief in my head, just doubt 
 
       Dm                      Dm7               Am Am7 Am
But my heart keeps telling me "hold your ground" 
 
       Dm                         Dm7          F G
You'll never learn a thing if you bail out now 
 
        C       G      Dm
And I'm lonely again tonight 
 
      Am             G          Dm
I can feel it like a knot in my side 
 
          Am             G           Dm
They keep saying this is part of the ride 
 
                    Am        G
But I'm not getting stronger 
 
    C         G          Dm
Yet hold me against the light 
 
       Am      G        Dm
Do you see any bullet inside? 
 
         Am              G     Dm
Wouldn't find one if you magnified 
 
                       Am         G
Because you've got the wrong girl 
 
Dm Dm7 Dm Am Am7 Am
 
       Dm                 Dm7                Am Am7 Am
Got my fingers around the back of your chair 
 
    Dm                         Dm7             Am G
You never miss a thing but you missed me there 
 
      Dm                      Dm7     Am      Am7 Am
And I just kept thinking "Am  I   prepared?" 
 
   Dm                          Dm7             Am G
To pull it out from under your trusting stare 
 
        F
Now the house is quiet as a hollow head 
 
        Am
And I'm walking around bumping into things you said 
 
         Dm                    Dm7
This has not been as easy as I thought it would 
 
       Am                         G
I'd be cooling down the fire if I thought I could 
 
        C       G      Dm
And I'm lonely again tonight 
 
      Am             G          Dm
I can feel it like a knot in my side 
 
          Am             G           Dm
They keep saying this is part of the ride 
 
                    Am        G
But I'm not getting stronger 
 
    C        G          Dm
Yet hold me against the light 
 
       Am      G        Dm
Do you see any bullet inside? 
 
         Am              G    Dm
Wouldn't find one if you magnified 
 
                        Am          G
Because you've got the wrong girl 
 
                  Dm    Dm7    Am
Yeah, you got the wrong girl
 
Dm        F        C            G
Oooooo,   ooo,     ooo,   oo-oo-oo
 
      Dm    F      C          G
Oo-oo-oo,   ooo,   ooo, oo-oo-oo
 
Dm       F      C          G
Ooooo,   ooo,   ooo, oo-oo-oo 
 
      Dm                G
Oo-oo-oo-ooo, I see you there
 
        Dm                   Dm7                 Am
And the floodgates open, but nothin' comes out
