[D]
[Gb] [F]
[Bb] [F] When [Ab] the day [Db] has turned [G] to [C] evening, [Ab] to [F] evening
[Bbm] And the stars [Bb] come [G] out and [Gb] show [E] their magic
[Ebm]
[Ab] That's the time you feel [C] so lonesome
[G]
It's so [C] strange [G] and it's [C] blue
[F] At midnight [Gb]
[Bbm] are [A] [Bbm] those [G] whose dreams are [Eb] shattered, are [Fm] shattered
[Bbm] Some who search in [Gb] vain for
[Ebm] lost [Eb] [Bb] love
[Ebm]
[Gb] Some [Ab] who walk the filthy
[Db] [A] canyons
[G] [C] Hoping they'll [Ebm] get [F] [Am] one more [Bb] chance
[F] [Bbm] When your [Gb] life seems it's [C] not worth living
[F] [Dm] And your [Bbm]
[Eb] world seems it's [A] unforgiving
And [F] the [D]
[Ebm] [Gb] heart's [C]
[F] [G] traveling [C]
[Gb] around
[Eb] [Db] It's often [Gb] been [Bm] told
[E]
[Cm] Lose [F] [Bbm] yourself, maybe [Ab] a [G] new tomorrow
[Bb] [Ab] Baby,
[F] I hope you find a love
[Gbm] To [Eb] hold [Fm] you [G] still, my
[Eb] [Ab] Then you will be oh so [Db] happy
[Fm] [Eb] [G] When the [C] midnight [Ebm] comes [F]
[Bb] around
[A]
I cannot tell you what it's [D] like
[D] [A] To [D]
have someone that you could [Bb] really love
[Bbm] A [F] good man that you can call [B] your [Bbm]
[D] heart [F] and [Em]
soul
[C] And so [G] around [Gm] midnight you leave my [Ab]
time [C] to bleed
[N]
