Intro:  D  G  D


(tacet)  D               G
New York City where it's cold as hell
        Em           F#m   G     A    D
And the streetlights shown in my blue room
      D                  G
I was thinking about the nights we spent
        Em    F#m   G         A       D
Back in Galveston beneath the Georgia moon
I was early and I'd had my share
I was countin' change for a cab ride back to bed
She looked at me through the cold night air
And thoughts of you kicked off inside my head
             G                    D
Well she was tall hair dark as midnight
           A              D
She had a way just like you do
            G          D     Bm
To make me feel just like a woman should
(tacet)           D
You can't call it cheatin'
         A             G
Cause she reminds me of you

Though I loved you and the trust we shared
Lord don't tell me that I've thrown it all away
A moments weakness shouldn't change the fact
That I need you and there's nothing more to say

             G                    D
Lord she was tall hair dark as midnight
           A               D
She had a way just like you do
            G               D       Bm
To make me feel just like a woman should
(tacet)           D
You can't call it cheatin'
          A             G
Cause she reminds me of you... etc.
