Lyrics
Hell of an Evening
D-Em-G-Em D-Em-G-Em
D Em G Em
Another hell of an evening, she’s screaming at me
D Em G
Through the wine, through the wounds, through her fears
D Em G A
How can I help her undo all that’s gone through the years?
D Em G Em D Em G
When you’ve once loved another who bends you too far, when you’ve lived through a cold, setting sun
D Em G A
When you’ve been to your knees and begged for your life, you just run
A#maj7 A#6 C Dm A#maj7 A#6 A#maj7 Dm A#maj7 A#6 C Dm G A G A
She said, “Hold me, help me, make me for get. You’re the closest yet.”
D Em G Em
I believe it’s the season of goodness and light
D Em G
And the feeling that maybe we’ll last
D Em G A
Free from the burdens and baggage that makes up our past.
A#maj7 A#6 C Dm A#maj7 A#6 A#maj7 Dm A#maj7 A#6 C Dm G A G A
She said, “Hold me, help me, make me for get. You’re the closest yet.”
D Em G Em
Well, that’s a hell of a reason for leaning on me,
D Em G
Cause you say you can’t trust any man!
D Em G A G
It’s easy to see how that love can be so damn crazy! It’s easy…
G Am C Am G Am C G Am C D
La-da-da-da
A#maj7 A#6 C Dm A#maj7 A#6 A#maj7 Dm A#maj7 A#6 A#maj7 Dm
“Hold me, help me, make me for get, make me for get,
A#maj7 A#6 A#maj7 D Em G Em D Em G Em D Em G Em D
make me for get…”
