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