VERSE 1:
[A] Night time
[D] comes and finds you a-
[A]-lone
In a
[A] space and time of your
[G] own
Lost in
[Bm] dreams in a world full of
[F#m] sha-
[G]-dows
VERSE 2:
[G] Down the
[D] street the neon light
[A] shines
Offering
[A] refuge and hope to the
[G] blind
You stumble
[Bm] in with no thought of to-
[F#m]-mor-
[G]-row
CHORUS:
Yes I
[D] get a little lonely when the
[A] sun gets
[G] low
And I
[D] end up looking for some-
[A]-where to
[G] go
Yes I
[D] should know better but I
[A] can't say
[G] no
[/F#] Oh
[/G] no
[/A] no
[A] no,
[A] no-no
[A] no-no
VERSE 3:
The lights are
[D] low and the music is
[A] loud
You watch your-
[A]-self as you play to the
[G] crowd
One more
[Bm] face in a palace of
[F#m] mir-
[G]-rors
VERSE 4:
One more
[D] drink your sailing a-
[A]-way
One more
[A] dream but it's looking o-
[G]-kay
One more
[Bm] time to watch the flow of the
[F#m] ri-
[G]-ver
REPEAT CHORUS:
BREAK: [over VERSE x2]
REPEAT CHORUS:
VERSE 5:
You've seen it
[D] all yeah you've seen it be-
[A]-fore
Like a
[A] fool you always come back for
[G] more
You live your
[Bm] life like there was no more to-
[F#m]-mor-
[G]-row
VERSE 6:
[A] Night time
[D] comes and finds you a-
[A]-lone
In a
[A] space and time of your
[G] own
Lost in
