Verse 1:    On     a     quiet  night
Gmaj7   Amaj7    Emaj7            Bsus4
You can hear the rustling of the leaves
Emaj7 F#m7 Emaj7/G# Amaj7
On     a     quiet  night
Gmaj7   Amaj7        Emaj7         Bsus4
Distant voices carry softly in the breeze

    C#m
Chorus 1:    And I'm inside my room
G#m
Captured in a moment's thought
Gmaj7                         F#m7
Strumming on a chord from my guitar
A/B  (N.C.; harpsichord as per intro)
Silently, silently (silently)
So silently (so silently)

Verse 2:    On a quiet night
Time hangs heavy in the air just like a cloud
I'm lying on my bed
Scratching my head, wondering what it's about

Chorus 2:    Are we all minstrels
Playing in a three-ring circus
Searching for a purpose that's not there
Silently, silently (silently)
So silently (so silently, so silently, so silently)

D#7          G#m
Everybody's thinking
      F#                     B
Gotta get ahead, gotta get ahead
D#7          G#m
Everybody's drinking
F#                   A
Hurrying, worrying, playing the game
     G#m
All acting the same
   B       A             G#m   F#m
As I look out through my windowpane

Verse 3:    On a quiet night
The wind, it can play tricks on your ear
Like some unsolved mystery
We all guess at the ending, but nobody comes near

repeat chorus 2
