I don`t know much about the Knight Brothers except that a) they weren`t
related; b) neither of them was named Knight (one of them, Joe Diggs,
wrote this soul classic); and c) they made Sam and Dave sound like Chad
and Jeremy. Oh, yes... play the choruses of this and `The Cheater` back
to back. --AWR

Gmaj7 Am7
Another day`s gone by
Gmaj7 Am7
Lord, and still I wait
Gmaj7 Bm7
You`ll never know how much
Am7 Bm7 Am7 Am7/D
I`ve tried to keep my faith and good humor

(Am7) Em
And all my faith will come tumblin` down
Verse 2:
All my friends, they understand
They feel the same as I do
She`s your love, you know
Here very life is you
Days go by, Lord, and I get weaker
Said a heart that was strong gets a little weaker
I know, somehow I know
That if my little heart gets weaker
You`ll hear my cryin`
[repeat chorus]
Coda (repeat to fade):
