Faster Than The Speed Of Night

Bonnie Tyler


Tom: D

D                                          G  A
I don't want to let another minute get by
        D                                                    G  A
they're slipping through our fingers, but we're ready to fly
    D                                            G  A
The night'll be our cover and we'll huddle below
           D                                  G  A
we got the music in our bodies and the radio

             G                     D             
And when the morning arrives it'll all be gone
G                                   D 
  Disappearing in (to) the crack of dawn
                   F#m                        Bm          
We better make our move now before the sun is awake
             G                        A    
It's time to put up or shut up and to pick up the pace
              G                        A    
(It's time to put up or shut up and to pick up the pace, baby, baby)

[Verse 2]
      D                                        G  A
And I don't want to let another minute get by
D                                                     G  A    
Love is going to get us while the moon is in the sky
          D                                                      G  A
We may be running out of night, but never running out of steam
      D                                                   G  A
We're acting on a hunch, and we'll be acting out a dream

G                         A        D
   There really isn't any time to lose
                  G                            A       D
they're going to catch us if we wait until it gets too light
              F#m
You're such a pretty boy
                                       B
let me show you what to do, and you'll do it
                   Em      G  Em
but you gotta move faster
A
faster than the speed of (night)

[Chorus]
D                A       G      A
Faster than the speed of night
D                A       G      A
Faster than the speed of night
     D
It's all we ever wanted
     A
and all we'll ever need
         Em
now it's slipping through our fingers
A
faster than the speed of (night)
D                 A      G       A
Faster than the speed of night
D                 A      G       A
Faster than the speed of night
     D                       A
It's all we ever wanted and all we'll ever need
         Em
and it's slipping through our fingers
A
Faster than the speed of (night)
D                 A      D
Faster than the speed of night
G                 A      G
Faster than the speed of night

F#m
   Let me show you how to drive me crazy
G                                         Bm
   Let me show you how to make me feel so good
                                      A
Let me show you how to take me to the edge of the stars
     G
and back again

F#m
   You've gotta show me how to drive you crazy
G                                                            Bm
   You've gotta show me all the things you want to happen to you
                                          Em
We've gotta tell each other everything we always wanted
           A    G  A  A7
Someone to do

[Verse 2]
D                                                      G  A
I don't want to push you now and I don't want to rush
              D                                                 G  A
We're getting closer every second now, but close is not enough
    D                                              G  A
The night'll be our cover and we'll huddle below
           D                                   G  A
We got the music in our fingers and the radio

G                         A       D
   There really isn't any time to lose
                 G                            A         D
They're going to catch us if we wait until it gets too light
              F#m
You're such a pretty boy
                                       B
Let me show you what to do, and you'll do it
                   Em      G  Em
But you gotta move faster
A
Faster than the speed of (night)

[Chorus]
D                A         G    A
Faster than the speed of night
D                A       G       A
faster than the speed of night
     D
It's all we ever wanted
    A
and all we'll ever need
         Em
And it's slipping through our fingers
A
Faster than the speed of (night)
D                 A       G     A
Faster than the speed of night
D                 A       G     A
Faster than the speed of night
     D
It's all we ever wanted
    A
and all we'll ever need
         Em
Now it's slipping through our fingers
A
faster than the speed of (night)
D                 A       D
Faster than the speed of night
G                 A        G
