First Verse:



D               A    Bm              A

Children in the dark searching all a-round



D              A     Bm              A

Hidden in your spot, suddenly you're found



A         B7              D

This is a game we used to play



A             B7            D

But there are higher stakes these days



Chorus:



       D            F#m

Like a thief in the night



       D               F#m

In the place where you hide



        Bm          D            F#m

He will come like a thief in the night



       D            F#m

Like a thief in the night



        D            F#m

He will come for his bride



        Bm          D            F#m

He will come like a theif in the night





Second Verse:



"Where is Jesus now?" asked the man of learning

He will never show.  Logic won't allow him

These are the words that people say

What words will they use that day





Repeat Chorus





Bridge:



D

And when he's here he'll shout



A

Erasing every doubt



Bm

And then they'll all cry out



 A        A        A        D

"Save us, save us, save us"



Repeat Chorus



Fade out.....
