[Verse]
E7 E
I was a poor little kid in the lungs of new York
Just like a motherless son of a bitch
A7                              A           A7
Loaded on ephedrine looking for downers and coke

       E                                       E7 E
Like a sun that just wouldn't set out on the horizon

B7          A7                        E      E7 E
Singing and dancing to them nighttime songs
[Verse]
E
I took a train and came up from Carolina
I was looking for something to do
A7
Nothing I found could ever quite occupy me

     E
With nothing to gain there's always nothing to lose

B7          A7                        E      E7 E
Singing and dancing to them nighttime songs

Cry me a river till the morning comes
[Verse]
E
I should've died a hundred thousand times
Teetering stoned off the side of buildings
A7
Nobody loved me and nobody even tried

    E7                                       E
You cant hang on to something that wont stop moving

B7          A7                        E
Singing and dancing to them nighttime songs
[Verse]
E
I got arrested down south for hitting a clerk
I spit in his face, the bastard knocked me out
   A7
He leered at my lady and then he touched her face

      E
Thank God she had the money to bail me out

B7          A7                        E
Singing and dancing to them nighttime songs

Cry me a river till the morning comes
[Chorus]
A               A7               A
Bar room boogie just like in the movies

A                  A7                A            E7 E
Go on put it to me shake it till the rattles come on

E7                              E
Take me where the morning don't come
[Verse]
E
I had a dog named Jet, when I was a kid
Until one day he wandered off and died
    A7
One night I went in the yard and dug him up

       E7                                         E
And he laid in the box just like a pile of bones

B7          A7                        E
Singing and dancing to them nighttime songs
[Verse]
E
I used to get loaded and baby Id drive your car
It seemed like there was always a cop
       A7
Coming behind me and following close as they could

       E
Eventually they'd just trail off

B7         A7                         E
Loaded and cruising to them nighttime songs

B7       A7                     E
Cry me a river till the morning comes
[Chorus]
A               A7               A
Bar room boogie just like in the movies

A                  A7                A            E7 E
Go on put it to me shake it till the rattles come on

E7                              E
Take me where the morning don't come
[Verse]
E
I think I died a hundred thousand times
Mixing liquor with mystery pills
A7
Mystery pills and heroin mixed into cocaine

E                    E7 E E7
Face down out on the riverside

E
Most of my friends are married and making them babies
To most of them I already died
    A7
And whatever it is about you I've always hated

   E
Is something about myself I just couldn't hide

        B7    A7                    E
And I'm going going baby I'm almost gone
[Outro]
   A7                    A                 E
So cry me a river to the other side of the morning

   E         E7            E
To where the morning don't come

   E         E7            E
To where the morning don't come

   E         E7            E
To where the morning don't come
A, A7 (x4), E
