Allan Taylor - The merlin café

The ^AmMerlin Café is ^Fempty ^GSave for a drunk or ^Dmtwo The ^Amwaitress is waiting on ^Fgoing And ^GI've quit waiting on ^Dmyou ^FMidnight lovers are ^Call the same We ^Gdream in impossible ^Amways In the faded light we ^Fcome alive And ^Ghide away from the ^Dmdays ^G

A ^Amsong will last for^Fever A ^Gsingle dream goes ^Dmfar ^AmLoneliness strips you ^Fdown to the bone ^GThat's when you know who you ^Dmare 'Cause you ^Fpay the price for ^Cchoosing The ^Gnight instead of ^Amday It's never just a case of ^Flosing But ^Gthrowing it all a^Dmway ^{G Dm G}

And I'll ^Cwrite you a song in the ^Ammorning And I'll ^Dmsing it for you some^Fday I'll ^Gsay all the things I ^Amshould have said Be^Ffore you went a^Gway ^{Dm G}

The ^Amjoker in his ^Freverie Takes a^Gnother glass of ^Dmwine The ^Ampoet watches ^Fcarefully And ^Gwrites another ^Dmline A ^Fjoker's just a ^Cdreamer Who got ^Glost along the ^Amway And dreamers can be ^Fpoets In this ^Gcrazy caba^Dmret ^G

I re^Ammember an old man ^Fpassing His ^Gtime was slipping a^Dmway I was ^Amholding his hand and ^Fwaiting 'Cause there was ^Gsomething he wanted to ^Dmsay He said, "^FFriends in times of ^Ctrouble ^GThey are the hardest to ^Amfind Hold on to them for^Fever And ^Gleave the rest be^Dmhind" ^{G Dm G}

And I'll ^Cwrite you a song in the ^Ammorning And I'll ^Dmsing it for you some^Fday I'll ^Gsay all the things I ^Amshould have said Be^Ffore you went a^Gway
