I came by my-self to a very crowded place;
G G7 F C
I was looking for someone who had lines in her face.
C7 F F
I found her there but she was past all con-cern;
C F Em Dm Dm
I asked her to hold me, said, "Lady, un-fold me,"
Em7 C F
but she scorned me and she told me
G G7 C
I was dead and I could never re-turn.
Well, I argued all night like so many have before,
saying, "Whatever you give me, I seem to need so much more."
Then she pointed at me where I kneeled on her floor,
she said, "Don't try to use me or slyly refuse me,
just win me or lose me,
it is this that the darkness is for."
I cried, "Oh, Lady Midnight, I fear that you grow old,
the stars eat your body and the wind makes you cold."
"If we cry now," she said, "it will just be ignored."
So I walked through the morning, sweet early morning,
I could hear my lady calling,
F 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,
C G G7 C
yes, you've won me, you've won me, my lord,
C G G7 C
ah, you've won me, you've won me, my lord,
C G G7 C
ah, you've won me, you've won me, my lord."
