Lady Midnight
-------------
Intro: C
G G7 F C
I came by myself to a very crowded place
G G7 F C
I was looking for someone who had lines in her face
C C7 F
I found her there but she was past all concern
C F Dm
I asked her to hold me, I said, "Lady unfold me."
C F
But she scorned me and she told me
G G7 C
I was dead and I could never return
G G7 F C
Well, I argued all night like so many have before
G G7 F C
Saying, "Whatever you give me, I seem to need so much more."
C C7 F
Then she pointed at me where I kneeled on her floor
C F Dm
She said, "Don't try to use me or slyly refuse me
C F
Just win me or lose me
G G7 C
It is this that the darkness is for."
G G7 F C
I cried, "Oh, Lady Midnight, I fear that you grow old
G G7 F C
The stars eat your body and the wind makes you cold."
C C7 F
"If we cry now," she said, "It will just be ignored."
C F Dm
So I walked through the morning, sweet early morning
C F
I could hear my lady calling
G G7 C
"You've won me, you've won me, my lord
G G7 C
You've won me, you've won me my lord
G G7 C
Yes, you've won me, you've won me, my lord
G G7 C
Ah, you've won me, you've won me, my lord
G G7 C
Ah, you've won me, you've won me, my lord."
