D                                                 G
I know that it is freezing but I think we have to walk

      D                                                   G
Keep waving at the taxis, they keep turning their lights off

     Em                                            A
But Julie knows a party at some actor's west-side loft

Em            G               Em              A                     D
Supplies are endless in the evening, by the morning, they'll be gone.

     D                                          G
When everthing is lonely, I can be my own best friend

         D                                        G
I get a coffee and the paper, have my own conversations

         Em                                             A
With the sidewalk and the pidgeons and my window reflection

Em         G              Em              A                     D
The mask I polish in the evening, by the morning looks like shit.
[Chorus]
      G                                 D
And I know you have a heavy heart, I can feel it when we kiss.

   G                                           D                     E7
So many men stronger than me have thrown their backs out, trying to lift it.

    G             Bm              Em       D     G
But me, I'm not a gamble, you can count on me to split,

    Em    G               Em              A                     D
The love I sell you in the evening, by the morning, won't exist.
[Verse]
               D                                              G
You're looking skinny like a model with your eyes all painted black,

          D                                                G
Just keep going to the bathroom always say you'll be right back.

         Em                                              A
Well it takes one to know one kid, I think you've got it bad.

     Em       G           Em              A                     D
But what's so easy in the evening, by the morning's such a drag.

            D                                              G
I've got a flask inside my pocket, we can share it on the train.

            D                                                G
And if you promise to stay conscious, I will try and do the same.

               Em                                             A
Yeah we might die from medication but we sure killed all the pain,

Em        G             Em              A                    D
What was normal in the evening, by the morning, seems insane.
[Chorus]
         G                                    D
And I'm not sure what the trouble was, that started all of this.

      G                                  D      E7
The reasons all have run away, but the feeling never did.

     G                      Bm              Em     D           G
It's not something I would recommend but it is one way to live,

        Em      G             Em               A                 D
'Cause what is simple in the moonlight, by the morning, never is.

              Em           G                  Em           Bm
Yeah it was simple in the moonlight, now it's so complicated.

           Em            G             Em            G            Em
It was so simple in the moonlight, so simple in the moonlight, so simple in

    G          D
the moonlight.....
