     C#        F#             G#
Well nighttime passes but the dark remains
           F#                                   G#
And I was feelin' like a little child but I am loathe to place blame
        C#             F#            G#
On that lioness-esque woman who will go here unnamed
           F#                              G#
She was looking in me for a lion when she found it so tame


[Interlude]
C#     F#     G#


[Verse 2]

         C#            F#                G#
On that erstwhile May morning I took the six downtown to Spring
           F#                               G#
And I was writing something elegiac That I never learned to sing
       C#                F#        G#
But I think it was this song just four years premature
        F#                             G#
And I remember crossing out the line -"All is fair in love and war"


[Pre-Chorus]
         C#     F#      C#       G#
Well if all is fair in love and war
    A#m     G#sus2/C       C#          F#
Then I don't know what we are fighting for


[Chorus]
                   C#/F   F#
Cuz my baby she's a real peach
               C#        G#
Even when the night come crashin' down
C#/F   F#          D#m       C#       B   G#
Real peach and the nighttime rolls awa-y, alright
            G#
And we're comin' back to the demon-killing work of love
 C# F#
(my god)


[Verse 3]
         C#      F#           G#
Well nighttime passes And the dark retreats
           F#                         G#
I hand it over to my upper angel Who visits me in sleep
              C#    F#                                   G#
We're in the field beyond the right and wrong And the fallacy of form
              F#                                          G#
Well you can call it what you wanna call it I just say -"All is fair in love and war"


[Pre-Chorus]

         C#     F#      C#       G#
Well if all is fair in love and war
    A#m     G#sus2/C       C#          F#
Then I don't know what we are fighting for
      C#        F#      C#       G#
So if we don't care To fight no more
      A#m       G#sus2/C   C#       F#
Let's go upstairs and let's shut the door


[Conclusion]
                    C#/F F#
Cuz my baby she's a real peach
               C#        G#
Even when the night come crashing down
C#/F F#            D#m       C#       B   G#
Real peach And the nighttime rolls away, alright
                    C#/F F#
Cuz my baby she's a real peach
               C#        G#
