Intro:

Bm7  Am (x2)

Verse 1:

       Bm7
In the lonely,
        Am
Dead of midnight,
       Bm7
In the dimness,
       Am
Of the twilight.
       Bm7
By the streetlight,
       Am
By the lamplight,
          G      D
I'll be a-round.

Verse 2:

       Bm7
In the sunlight,
       Am
In the daylight,
        Bm7
And I'm workin',
       Am
On the insight.
        Bm7
And I'm tryin',
To keep,
   Am
My game uptight,
          G      D
I'll be a-round.

Chorus 1:

              C
And your memo-ry,
D
 I heard this,
Lonely, lonely,
      G     G7
Music once.

              C
And your memo-ry,
D
 Has been,
Haunting me,
     G     D
Ever since.

Verse 3:

         Bm7
When I'm tryin',
Tryin' to,
Am
 Come down,
      Bm7
In my world,
My room keeps,
Am
 Spinning round.
        Bm7
And I'm tryin',
To get my feet,
     Am
Back on,
The ground;
           G      D
You come a-round.

Bm7  Am (x3)

              C
And your memo-ry,
D
 I heard this,
Lonely, lonely,
      G     G7
Music once.

              C
And your memo-ry,
D
 Has been,
Haunting me,
     G     D
Ever since.

Verse 4:

       Bm7
In the lonely,
        Am
Dead of midnight,
       Bm7
In the dimness,
       Am
Of the twilight.

By the streetlight,

By the lamplight,

I'll be a-round.

The come down,
       Bm7
And my room,
My room keeps,

Spinning round,
And round.

To get my feet,
Right back,
Am
 On the ground;

You come a-round.
