[F]
I feel the trembling tingle of a sleepless night
[Bb]
Creep [C] through my fingers and [F] the moon is bright
Beams of blue come flickering through [Gm] my windowpane
[Bb]
Like gypsy maws that dance around [F] a candle flame
And I wonder if you [Bb] know
[C] That I never [F] understood
[Dm] That although you said you'd [Em] go
[Gm]
[Bb] Until you did, [C] I never thought
[F]
Moonlight used to bathe the contours of your face
[Bb]

Morning comes and morning goes with no regret
[Bb] [F] And [D] evening brings [Bbm] the memories [Fm] I can't [C]
forget
[F] Empty rooms that echo [Bb] as I climb the stairs
[Bbm] And empty clothes [C] that drape and fall on [F] empty chairs
And I wonder if you [Dm] know
