[INTRO:] Cmaj7 Am7 Dm7 G [VERSE 1:]
Cmaj7            Am7
What can you do, you'll never win

Dm7                    G
Where will you go when night closes in

Cmaj7               Am7
Where will it lead, will it ever end

Dm7                 G           E7         Am
Where will it stop, losing a friend isn't

               F             Am
What we had in mind exactly 

                 D               Am
All we need is a friend I guess

                 F                      C
With my midnight star to guide through

          G     Am    G/B
Clouds of loneliness
[VERSE 2:]
Cmaj7             Am7
You knew someone, but was it love

Dm7            G
So many years, push came to shove

Cmaj7               Am7
You had a dream, so they had one too

Dm7              G           E7           Am
You turned away, they were untrue, in our 

              F                  Am
Early days we were too willing

                   D              Am
At the time we had yet to arrive

               F            C
Many a man and woman found

          G     Am    G/B
Trying to stay alive
[INSTRUMENTAL:] Cmaj7 Am7 Dm7 G [VERSE 3:]
Cmaj7              Am7
Where will you go, what will you do

Dm7                         G
When your whole world ain't talking to you

Cmaj7           Am7
Maybe you think you will see the light

Dm7                    G                E7 
Maybe you'll find what you hope is right

       Am                 F            Am
And I'm all dressed up to be somebody

                D              Am
All I need is a friendly face

                 F                       C
With my midnight crowd to glide through

          G     Am    G/B
Clouds of empty space
[INTERLUDE:] Cmaj7 Am7 Dm7 G E7 [VERSE 4:]
          Am             F            Am
Seems like every time we turn around

                     D               Am
What we see could be anyone's guess

               F               C
Many a man and woman found in

          G     Am    G/B
Clouds of loneliness
