Intro : E A B E A B E A B A Abm Fsharpminor B
When the Eday is done and there's Abmnowhere to run (nowhere to run)
And the Apeople of the city have all Blost and won
In your cEity dress you Abmstand and stare (you stand and stare)
And you Asmoke another cigarette and Bcomb your hair
And the Alight (The Light) thaEt shines (That Shines)
Fsharpminor Abm
Paints a trace of sadness
On the sAtreet (The Street) EI wait (I wait)
Fsharpminor A
But I can't seem to get to you.
(Same Pattern)
oh, you start to sway, check your Cartier (it's gettin' late)
'Cos it's getting late, you can't afford to wait
So you move along where it's going on (it's going on)
And the people of the night are playing 'till the dawn
And the sun (The Sun) that shines (That Shines)
Paints a trace of sadness
In your eyes (Those eyes) that cry (That Cry)
Wishing and hoping
Oh...
CHORUS:
ESweet, sweet is the Anight
Now Byou are Enear
EDark, dark were the Adays
They BdisappEear
ESweet, sweet is the Anight
B E A Abm Fsharpminor B
Now you are near.
(Same Pattern)
Well you did your thing and you lost your wings (you did your thing)
And you hurt so bad you lost everything
And the tears that fall on the city wall (the city wall)
Will fade away with the rays of morning light THE LIGHT that shines THAT SINES
Paints a smile across your pretty face (Your Face)
I know (I know)
Everything is alright
Alright... uh oo uh oo uh oo
REPEAT CHORUS x2
