Verse 1
F 
Yes, you say one evening's
E 
like another
F 
Bronze and blist 'less time,
Dm 
G 
E 
the shadows fall
F 
E 
Streets full of a soft, indifferent slumber
F 
Bdim 
It steeps you in the darkness after all
E 
Am 
Dm 
But the evening is a distant town
G 
Where shadows gather
C 
and  troops are brown
Em 
G 
F 
The moon returns to a lonely book
Dm 
And sighs for how words fail
E 
While the mountain wears a cloud
F 
With a purple trail
Winter night that whistles
E 
Through the tree limbs
F 
Am 
E 
Vacant sky, more vacant on the streams
Am 
F 
The day departs upon her
E 
golden phoenix
Am 
F 
The night be  gins to
E 
wake us for the dream
Am 
Dm 
And the evening is a distant town too
G 
Where shadows gather,
C 
and troops of brown
G 
F 
They hover for another look
Dm 
The dusk lets down its veil
E 
On the mountain wears a cloud
F 
With a purple trail
Dm 
Am 
Willow branches bright with
Dm 
E 
sil ver monkeys
F 
Am 
E 
Down they dive to try and catch the moon
F 
Dm 
F 
So two lovers fumble
Dm 
E 
with their longing,
F 
E 
Drown within some darker afternoon.
Am 
Dm 
And the evening gives a distance out
G 
C 
Where shadows gather,
when troops are brown
G 
F 
The moon returns to her lonely book,
Dm 
sighs for how words fail
E 
While the mountain wears a cloud
F 
with a purple trail
Am 
Dm 
Still the evening is a distant town
G 
C 
Where shadows gather
G 
C 
G 
an d  troops of brown
C 
F 
Another fall, another look
Dm 
The dusk lets down its veil
E 
On the mountain wears a cloud
F 
C 
With a purple trail
