A5         G5     F5
When nightfall comes around
When nightfall comes around

C5          A5
What a day today has been
     G5                     F5
I've got the whole world upon my shoulder
C5                      A5
My future's bright but my face is thin
G5                         F5          
I picked the wrong day to be hung over
A5          F5
My time has come
        C5                 G5
There's got to be a better way of life
A5          F5
My time has come
    C5            G5    GGGGGGGG5  
And my time is now

A5        G5         F5
When nightfall comes around
And daybreak gets you down
And you feel like you're the only friend in town
When nightfall comes around

G5 G5 A5 Bb5  E5  G5 A5 Bb5 E5

C5                   A5
Never know what the nightlife holds
     G5                      F5
The cards are down and the table's rusted
C5                  A5
I guess the key to growin' old
   G5                      F5     
Is havin' lots of fun and not getting busted
A5          F5
My time has come
C5                   G5
There's got to be a better way of life
A5          F5
My time has come
C5              G5 GGGGGGG5
And my time is now

Chorus

G5 A5 Bb5 E5  G5 A5 Bb5 E5

D5            Bb5
Take me to a higher mountain
D5            G5
Skyscraper, tell you later


C5          A5
What a day today has been
     G5                     F5
I've got the whole world upon my shoulder
C5                      A5
My future's bright but my face is thin
G5                         F5          
I picked the wrong day to be hung over
A5          F5
My time has come
        C5                 G5
There's got to be a better way of life
A5          F5
My time has come
    C5            G5    GGGGGGGG5  
And my time is now

Chorus

This song is one of Ted's most interesting.  It sounds like a 3 chord
wonder but upon further inspection, you'll realize, there's a lot of
theory and genius in Ted's writing.
