Sometime Around Mid Night

G6 Em C G6

[Verse 1]
G6
And it starts sometime around midnight
            Em                       C                    G6
Or at least that's when you lose yourself for a minute or two


[Verse 2]
G6
As you stand under the bar lights
        Em
And the band plays some song
          C                     G6
About forgetting yourself for a while
        Em                       C                G6
And the piano's this melancholy soundtrack to her smile
         Em                C
And that white dress she's wearing
N.C.
You haven't seen her for a while


[Verse 3]
G6
But you know that she's watching
       Em
She's laughing, she's turning
       C                        G6
She's holding her tonic like a cross
            Em
The room's suddenly spinning
     C                         G6
She walks up and asks how you are
           Em
So you can smell her perfume
        C                           G6
You can see her lying naked in your arms


[Verse 4]
 G6
And so there's a change in your emotions
              Em
And all these memories come rushing
      C                  G6
Like feral waves to your mind
       Em                       C                     G6
Of the curl of your bodies like two perfect circles entwined
             Em
And you feel hopeless and homeless
     C                      G6
And lost in the haze of the wine


[Verse 5]
 G6
Then she leaves with someone you don't know
         Em
But she makes sure you saw her
     C                        G6
She looks right at you and bolts
        Em
As she walks out the door
           C                          G6
Your blood boiling, your stomach in ropes
             Em           C
Oh, and your friends say "What is it?
N.C.
You look like you've seen a ghost"

[Verse 6]
G6
Then you walk under the streetlights
           Em                         C                    G6
And you're too drunk to notice that everyone's staring at you
               Em
You just don't care what you look like
     C                      G6
The world is falling around you


Em
You just have to see her
C
You just have to see her
Em
You just have to see her
C
You just have to see her
Em
You just have to see her
