I’m walking through the summer nights

Jukebox playing low

I got no place left to turn

You left me standing in the doorway, crying

I got nothing to go back to now

The stars have turned cherry red
F Bb(sus2) F Bb(sus2)
I’m strumming on my gay guitar

Smoking a cheap cigar

Under the midnight moon

I’ve been riding the midnight train

When the last rays of daylight go down

I can hear the church bells ringing in the yard
C Em/B Am C/G
I wonder who they’re ringing for
F Bb(sus2) F Bb(sus2)
I know I can’t win
F Bb(sus2) | F G |
But my heart just won’t give in

Last night I danced with a stranger

But she just reminded me you were the one

In the dark land of the sun

And live my life on the square

And even if the flesh falls off of my face
C Em/B Am C/G
I know someone will be there to care
F Bb(sus2) F Bb(sus2)
It always means so much

Even the softest touch
C Em/B Am C/G
I see nothing to be gained by any explanation
C Em/B Am C
There’s no words that need to be said
F C G D
You left me standing in the doorway, crying
F C
Blues wrapped around my head
