Chord Midnight Man by Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds

verse Em hold that chrysalis in your palm G Em see it split and change it won’t do you any harm G Em it’s just trying to rearrange it was born to live a day D C now it flies up from your hand it’s beautiful it’s the one they call Em your ever - loving man wolves have carried your babies away o your kids drip from their teeth the nights are long and the day is bitter cold beyond belief you spread yourself like a penitent upon the mad vibrating sand and through your teeth arrange to meet your midnight man chorus Am Em everybody’s coming round to my place! Am Em everynody’s coming round to my place! Am everybody’s coming round! o baby don’t you see everybody wants to be Em your midnight man don’t disturb me as i sleep treat me gentle when i wake don’t disturb me as i sleep even though your body aches even though your body aches to serve at his command between the wars she still adores her ever - loving man close your eyes , sleep in him dream of your lost sons and daughters me , i’ll raise up the dorsal fin and glide up and down the waters i’ll glide up and down the waters then i’ll walk upon the land and call Em out the ones who doubt your midnight man everybody’s coming round to my place! everybody’s coming roung to my place! everybody’s coming round! o darling don’t you see everybody wants to be your midnight man
