This is a song I wrote about my experience with anxiety and panic attacks (which often occurred at night hence the name - midnight fire). [Verse 1]
I'm awAmake at night, (Am/G) F Turning out the light, (F/G) Am (Am/G) Still no peace in sight. F (F/G) Mmmm...
[Verse 2]
So I Amtoss and turn, (Am/G) F As my insides burn, (F/G) Am Will I ever learn? F (F/G) Mmmm...
[Chorus] C (Dmaj7)F Let me drift away, (F/G) Am From the dark of night, (Am/G) F To the light of day. C (Dmaj7)F I don't wish to stay, (F/G) Am In this midnight fire, (Am/G) F Let me drift away.
MAmmmm MFmmm MAmmmm MFmmm...
[Verse 3]
I'm still Amup at night, (Am/G) F A neverending fight, (F/G) Am (Am/G) Try to hold on tight. F (F/G) Mmmm...
[Verse 4]
But my Amgrip is weak, (Am/G) F And the rope's antique, (F/G) Am It's looking pretty bleak. F (F/G) Mmmm...
[Chorus] C (Dmaj7)F Let me drift away, (F/G) Am From the dark of night, (Am/G) F To the light of day. C (Dmaj7)F I don't wish to stay, (F/G) Am In this midnight fire, (Am/G) F Let me drift away.
MAmmmm MFmmm MAmmmm MFmmm...
[Bridge] Am (Am/C)(Am/B) Take me away from here, F (F/C)(F/B) Take me away from here, Am (Am/C)(Am/B) Take me away from here. F (F/C)(F/B) Mmmm... Am (Am/C)(Am/B) Take me away from here, F (F/C)(F/B) Take me away from here, Am (Am/C)(Am/B) Take me away from here. F (F/C)(F/B) Mmmm... [Final Chorus] C (Dmaj7)F Let me drift away, (F/G) Am From the dark of night, (Am/G) F To the light of day. C (Dmaj7)F I am too a-fraid, (F/G) Am Of this midnight fire, (Am/G) F Please don't make me stay...
