Helloween - In the Night (1993)
Transcribed by Jon Malmin (jogusmal@hotmail.com)
Tuning: Eb (1/2 step down)

A very religious song by Michael Kiske. It's easy to play, all bar chords.
I won't include the sus4-chords in the chorus, listen to the song and you'll know how to 
play them.
Or just look it up if you don't know them.

Intro (play this 2x):
e|----------------------------------------|
B|----------------------------------------|
G|--1-2--2s4------1-2--2s4-----2-1--------|
D|----------------------------------2-----|
A|-------------------------------------0--|

EIn (022100@1)the night I'm calling you
        A (x02220@1)            EBe (022100@1)my guide, help me through
        EIn (022100@1)the night I call your name
            A (x02220@1)               EYou're (022100@1)the light in times of shame
      D (xx0232@1)                 A (x02220@1)    B (x2444x@1)       EThe (022100@1)songs I sing, all my love I bring for you

E7 (020130@1)                              B7I (x21202@1)always try to make things better, everything that has gone wrong
A7 (x02020@1)                                      B7Mighty (x21202@1)plans in the right direction, but very little has been done.
E7 (020130@1)                                   B7Everyday (x21202@1)when I try to get forward, I find myself another mile back,
A7 (x02020@1)                                     B7Help (x21202@1)me fighting, help me breathing, why am I falling down instead?

D (xx0232@1)                          A (x02220@1)                EEvery (022100@1)useful minute seems to be the thought of you
       D (xx0232@1)                                 A (x02220@1)                EEvery (022100@1)hour seems like wasted, filled with things that I might do
        D (xx0232@1)                                                    BWithout (x2444x@1)love in my reactions seems the saddest thing, but it's true

[Chorus, same as the previous one]

Solo backing: E and E7, just alternate between those two chords!
Enter the next part with a B7, and play it more quietly with lots of plalm muting!

B7Free (x21202@1)from ourselves and free form this world we may find
     A7 (x02020@1)                                          B7The (x21202@1)freedom we search, 'cause all that we need is inside
     B7The (x21202@1)hours we waste, we may not get back for a while
      A7 (x02020@1)                                           G (320003@1)   F# (244322@1)   B7And (x21202@1)when it gets dark, no chance will be there for a try

[Verse: same chords as previous verses]
When I wake up early in the morning, I catch abook and jump inside,
I fill my head with a million wonders, and try to fill the night with light
The moment when I get things clearer, I see another mountain to climb
And always when I think I'm nearer, I realize there is no time

[Chorus, same chords as previous choruses]
In the night I'm calling you
Be my guide, help me through
In the night I call your name
You're the light in times of shame
Sometimes I cried after all I lied to you

End the song with one and a half bar of E (listen to the song for clues)
