Verse 1
[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] Midnight, not a sound from the		 [EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Sixth] pavement
[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Sixth] Has the moon lost her		 [CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fourth] memory? She is smiling a-		 [BmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Third] lone
In the [AmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Second] lamplight the withered leaves co-		 [EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Sixth] llect at my feet
And the [DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fifth] wind begins to		 [GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] moan

Verse 2
[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] Memory, all alone in the		 [EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Sixth] moonlight
[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Sixth] I can smile at the		 [CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fourth] old days, I was beautiful		 [BmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Third] then
I re- [AmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Second] member the time I knew what		 [EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Sixth] happiness was
Let the [DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fifth] memory live a-		 [GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] gain

Bridge 1
[BmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Third] Every		 [CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fourth] streetlamp		 [BmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Third] seems to		 [CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fourth] beat
A [BmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Third] fata-		 [GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] listic		 [DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fifth] warning
[BmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Third] Someone mu-		 [EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Sixth] tters, and the st-		 [AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Major Second] reetlamp		 [DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fifth] gutters
And [BmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Third] soon it		 [EMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Major Sixth] will be		 [AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Major Second] morning

Verse 3
[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] Daylight, I must wait for the		 [EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Sixth] sunrise
[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Sixth] I must think of a		 [CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fourth] new life, and I mustn't give		 [BmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Third] in
When the [AmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Second] dawn comes, tonight will be a		 [EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Sixth] memory too
And a [DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fifth] new day will be-		 [GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] gin

Bridge 2
[BmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Third] Burnt out		 [CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fourth] ends of		 [BmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Third] smokey		 [CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fourth] days
[CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fourth] The		 [BmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Third] stale cold		 [GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] smell of		 [DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fifth] morning
A [BmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Third] streetlamp dies, another		 [AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Major Second] night is over
A- [BmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Third] nother		 [EMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Major Sixth] day is		 [AMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Major Second] dawning

Verse 4
[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] Touch me, it's so easy to		 [EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Sixth] leave me
[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Sixth] All alone with the		 [CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fourth] memory of my days in the		 [BmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Third] sun
If you [AmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Second] touch me, you'll understand what		 [EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Sixth] happiness is
Look, a [DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Fifth] new day has be-		 [GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5)
on the Perfect Unison] gun
