Sometime Around Mid Night

C6 Am F C6 C6 And it starts sometime around midnight Am F C6 Or at least that's when you lose yourself for a minute or two C6 As you stand under the bar lights Am And the band plays some song F C6 About forgetting yourself for a while Am F C6 And the piano's this melancholy soundtrack to her smile Am F And that white dress she's wearing N.C. You haven't seen her for a while C6 But you know that she's watching Am She's laughing, she's turning F C6 She's holding her tonic like a cross Am The room's suddenly spinning F C6 She walks up and asks how you are Am So you can smell her perfume F C6 You can see her lying naked in your arms C6 And so there's a change in your emotions Am And all these memories come rushing F C6 Like feral waves to your mind Am F C6 Of the curl of your bodies like two perfect circles entwined Am And you feel hopeless and homeless F C6 And lost in the haze of the wine C6 Then she leaves with someone you don't know Am But she makes sure you saw her F C6 She looks right at you and bolts Am As she walks out the door F C6 Your blood boiling, your stomach in ropes Am F Oh, and your friends say "What is it? N.C. You look like you've seen a ghost" C6 F G Am F G C6 C6 Then you walk under the streetlights Am F C6 And you're too drunk to notice that everyone's staring at you Am You just don't care what you look like F C6 The world is falling around you Am You just have to see her F You just have to see her Am You just have to see her F You just have to see her Am You just have to see her N.C. You know that she'll break you in two C6 Am F C6
