Casting Crowns - Waiting on the Night to Fall: chords

   Gm                                         A#
There's an old man living in the back of you woods
tonight.
        F                                 C
You forgot he was even there, but you've never
slipped his mind.
 Gm                                          A#
He's living off of scraps of you, you never knew
you left behind.
            F                               C
And as the sun goes down, he rises with a smile.

Chorus:
 C                            D#
He's waiting on the night to fall.
                         A#
The old man's coming to call,
     F                                Gm
But you don's see the writing on the wall.
                             D#
He'll never step out in the light;
                     A#
no he's just biding time.
                F
And while you slumber,
                           Dm
hes gonna come and take it all.
                              D#
He's waiting on the night to fall,
Gm                            F   C
He's waiting on the night to fall.

He knows you have the answers,
but Truth lies dusty on your shelf
And the sword that you could slay
him with has become an ornament and nothing else
You could put him back down in his
hole in the ground, but he knows you never will
He's been around so long you got used to the smell

Chorus

                D#
He knows he'll never have your soul,
             Gm
but he will gladly rob you blind.
            F
While you feasting at his table
               C
he'll tie you hands and numb you mind.
                 D#
He'll take you farther than you want to go,
                Gm
he'll keep you longer
                                   F
than you wan to stay. And it will cost you
                                    C
more than you'd ever thought you'd pay.

Chorus

      C
He's waiting on the night,
      Gm
He's waiting on the night to fall.
    D#
The old man's coming to call,
     A#                 F/A
but you don't see the writing on the wall.
Gm    D#
He's waiting on the night,
      A#
he's waiting on the night to fall.
C                    Gm
He's waiting on the night to fall.
