Tabbed by Ann Hogan
Hello, all.
There were a few errors in the previous submission of this tab (under the
band name "The Jakes"), so I posted my corrected version of it.
In this song, some of the chords are the same, just with different
fingerings, so I marked the different ones with an asterisk (*).

Sweetness,
Bm Aadd9 A
On the rips of your old dress.

Twilight
Bm Aadd9 A
Passed the banks of the warm fire.
Dmaj7 Bm
Whispers in the dark, they hit the trees
Aadd9 A
And they run in to your heart to find mamas sleeves.
Dmaj7 Bm
Daddy aint awake, and daylights gone.
Aadd9 A
Afraid of the dark, you think of mamas bones.
E7
Cause I cant live like this
E7 A*
Because I heard your mama cry.
A* Dmaj7 Bm
Behind the door Im listening;
A Dmaj7*
She said shes gonna fly.
Dmaj7* E7* Riff
With words your mouth shes kissing.
E7 Amaj7 Dmaj7 Bm
And she said, "Woah, oh, oh, child,
Dmaj7*
Your back is straight;
Dmaj7* E7* Riff
Dont let hurt curve it that way."
E7*
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah.
Dmaj7 Bm Aadd9 A x2

Bm Aadd9 A
On the ribs of your bare chest.

Twilight
Bm Aadd9 A
On the roof of that snowy night.

You ran outside without your boots on.

You could be lost, youd find yourself at home
Dmaj7 Bm
Where mamas house is up on the sunrise.
Aadd9 A
Sweet good God, just take me by surprise.
E7
Cause I cant live like this,
E7 A*
Because I heard your mama cry.

But I said, "Mama, please take me home;
Amaj7 Dmaj7 Bm
Cause I cant stand being alone
E7 Dmaj7 Bm
Cause the pain is shooting down my spine again."
Dmaj7* E7* Riff
Said, "Daddys feeling sick; oh, I think hes gonna quit."
E7*
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah.

On the mouth of your car - ess.

Bm Aadd9 A
Past the stars of that open night.
