Its 4/4 timing at 80bpm. The verses/bridge are in C minor and the chorus in C major, which sounds great :>) The piano part's got loads of twiddly arpeggiated scales and stuff in it, which sounds a bit too much like like hard work to tab out. It translates pretty well into to a strummed guitar arrangement though. Here's the chords, the melody for the vocal and some suggestions for strumming patterns........ Chords/lyrics.........

[................saxaphone...................] [chorus] [outro]: chord Cm(III) Bb | Cm(VIII) beats 1 2 3 4 | 1 2 3 4 Arrangement.......... the feel is kinda quiet and moody in the early part of the verse, building up to confident & defiant later on in the verse and in the chorus (think of Cher getting angsty and expressive.......no?, ok, whatever). (My) arrangement is for strummed guitar. Here's a suggestion for how much and when...... the early part of the verses, you can *almost* get by with just a single strum on each chord change, but here's just a bit more.....Cm Bb Cm Bb e-|3---------------|3-------------66|----------------|3----------------|Ab Bb CmB-|4---------------|4-------------66|----------------|4----------------|G-|4-------7-------|5-------7-----77|5-5-5---7-7-7---|5----------------|D-|4-------8-------|5-------8-------|6-6-6---8-8-8---|5----------------|A-|--------8-------|--------8-------|6-6-6---8-8-8---|3----------------|E-|--------6-------|--------6-------|4-4-4---6-6-6---|-----------------| 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 I hear somebody down midnight street [strum gently and let everything ring, except in the third bar which kinda chugs] [...then build it up {louder and faster strumming} til you get to the chorus {which still isn't *real* loud, maybe two-thirds of the loudest you could ever strum}.
