[Verse 1]
I caGme by myG7self to a Fadd9very crowded pClace;
I was loGoking for somG7eone who had Fadd9lines in her Cface.
CI found her thereC7 but she was pFast all concern;
CI asked her to hFold me, DmI said, "Lady, unfold me, "
But she scCorned me and she tFold me
I was dGeadG7 and I could never rCeturn.
[Verse 2]
Well, I arGgued all nG7ight like Fadd9so many have beCfore,
SaGying, "WhateverG7 you give me, I seem to nFadd9eed so much mCore."
Then she pointed at meC7 where I knFeeled on her floor,
She said, "DCon't try to uFse meDm or slyly refuse me,
CJust win me or lFose me,
It is tGhis that the darG7kness is Cfor."
[Chorus]
I cried, "GOh, Lady MidnightG7, I fFadd9ear that you grow oCld,
TGhe stars eat your bG7ody and the wFadd9ind makes you cCold."
"If we cry now, " she saidC7, "it will jFust be ignored."
So I wCalked through the moFrning,Dm sweet early morning,
I could Chear my lady caFlling,
"You've wGon me, you've G7won me, my Clord,
You've wGon me, you've G7won me, my Clord,
Yes, you've wGon me, you've G7won me, my Clord,
Ah, you've wGon me, you've wG7on me, my Clord,
Ah, you've wGon me, you've wG7on me, my Clord."
