[Verse 1]
C                              Am
Midnight, not a sound from the pavement

                      F                       Em
Has the moon lost her memory? She is smiling alone

       Dm                               Am
In the lamplight the withered leaves collect at my feet

        G              C
And the wind begins to moan
[Verse 2]
C                        Am
Memory, all alone in the moonlight

                   F                         Em
I can smile at the old days, I was beautiful then

    Dm                          Am
I remember the time I knew what happiness was

        G            C
Let the memory live again
[Bridge]
Em    F          Em       F
Every streetlamp seems to beat

  Em  C      G
A fatalistic warning

Em                       D
Someone mutters, and the streetlamp gutters

    Em      A       D
And soon it will be morning
[Verse 3]
C                             Am
Daylight, I must wait for the sunrise

                  F                            Em
I must think of a new life, and I mustn't give in

         Dm                            Am
When the dawn comes, tonight will be a memory too

      G              C
And a new day will begin
[Bridge]
Em        F       Em     F
Burnt out ends of smokey days

    Em         C        G
The stale cold smell of morning

  Em                       D
A streetlamp dies, another night is over

 Em     A      D
Another day is dawning
[Verse 4]
C                         Am
Touch me, it's so easy to leave me

                   F                        Em
All alone with the memory of my days in the sun

       Dm                               Am
If you touch me, you'll understand what happiness is

        G             C
Look, a new day has begun
