Chords used: G-C-Am-D-A7-Em



capo 7

[G]I know that it is freezing but i think we have to [C]walk
I just keep [G]waving at the taxis they keep turning their lights [C]off
but [Am]Julie knows a party at some actor's west-side [D]loft
supplies are [Am]endless in the [C]evening by the [Am]morning [D]they'll be [G]gone

[G]When everything is lonely i can be my own best [C]friend
I get a [G]coffee and the paper have my own conversa[C]tions
with the [Am]sidewalk and the pigeons and my window reflec[D]tion
the mask i [Am]polish in the [C]evening by the [Am]morning [D]looks like [G]shit

And I [C]know you have a heavy heart, I can [G]feel it when we kiss
So [C]many men stronger than me have thrown their [G]backs out trying to [A7]lift it
But [C]me i'm not a [Em]gamble you can [G]count on me to [C]split
The love I [Am]sell you in the [C]evening by the [Am]morning [D]won't [G]exist

[G] [C]
[G] [C]
[Am] [D]
[Am] [C] [Am] [D] [G]

[G]You're looking skinny like a model with your eyes all painted [C]black
Just keep [G]going to the bathroom always say you'll be right [C]back
Well it [Am]takes one to know one kid i think you've got it [D]bad
But whats so [Am]easy in the [C]evening by the [Am]morning's [D]such a [G]drag

I've got a [G]flask inside my pocket we can share it on the [C]train
And if you [G]promise to stay conscious i will try and do the [C]same
Yeah we [Am]might die from medication but we sure killed all the [D]pain
But what was [Am]normal in the [C]evening by the [Am]morning [D]seems in[G]sane

And i'm [C]not sure what the trouble was that [G]started all of this
The [C]reasons all have run away but the [G]feeling never [A7]did
It's not [C]something i would [Em]recommend but it [G]is one way to [C]live
Cause what is [Am]simple in the [C]moonlight by the [Am]morning [D]never [G]is
Yeah it was [Am]simple in the [C]moonlight now it's [Am]so complica[Em]ted
It was so [Am]simple in the [C]moonlight, so [Am]simple in the [C]moonlight, so [Am]simple in the [C]moonlight... [G]

Capo 4

Intro (twice):
[C] [E] [Am]
[F] [G] [C]

[C]This is the [E]first day of my [Am]life
[F]I swear I was [G]born right in the [C]doorway
[C]I went out in the [E]rain suddenly everything [Am]changed
They're spreading [D7]blankets on the [G]beach [G7]

[C]Yours is the [E]first face that I [Am]saw
[F] think I was [G]blind before I [C]met you
[C]Now I don’t know where I [E]am
I don’t know where I’ve [Am]been
But I know [D7]where I want to [G]go [G7]

So I [C]thought I’d [G]let you [Am]know
That [F]these things take for[G]ever
I e[C]special[C/B]ly am [Am]slow
But I [Dmsus2]realize that I need you
And I wondered if I could come [C]home [G] [Am]

[Dmsus2] [Fmsus2] [Fmsus2]

[C]Remember the [E]time you drove all [Am]night
[F]Just to [G]meet me in the [C]morning
[C] I thought it was [E]strange you said everything [Am]changed
You felt as [D7]if you'd just woke [G]up [G7]

And you said[C]“This is the [E]first day of my [Am]life
[F]I’m glad I didn’t [G]die before I [C]met you
[C]Now I don’t [E]care I could go any[Am]where with you
And I’d [D7]probably be hap[G]py” [G7]

So if you [C]want to [G]be with [Am]me
With [F]these things there’s no [G]telling
We just [C]have to [C/B]wait and [Am]see

But I’d rather be [Dmsus2]working for a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lotte[C]ry [E] [Am]

Besides may[Dmsus2]be this time is different
I mean I really think you like [C]me [E] [Am]

[Dmsus2] [Fmsus2] [Fmsus2]
[C] [E] [Am]
[Dmsus2] [Fmsus2] [Fmsus2]
[C]
