Title: SOUTH CITY MIDNIGHT LADY (Doobie Bros) * - can be played as GMaj7/B [Verse]
G                        C
Up all night I could not sleep

    G                        C
The whiskey that I drank was cheap

     G                          C                  D
With shakin' hands I wait and I lit up my last cigarette

         G                      C
Well the sun came the night had fled

    G                        C
And sleepy-eyed I reached my bed

  G                      C                     G     C  G
I saw you sleepy dreamin there all covered and warm
[Chorus]
C                   Bm
South city midnight lady

    Bb              C
I'm much obliged indeed

    C                    Bm        Am          G    C  G
You sure have saved this man whose soul was in need

C                      Bm
I thought there was no reason

    Bb                 C
For all these things I do

        C                 Bm     Am              G   
But the smile that I sent out returned with you
[Verse]
G                             C
When day has left the night behind

    G                      C
And shadows roll across my mind

  G                      C                        D
I sometimes find myself alone and out walking the street

        G                         C
Yes and when I'm feelin' down and blue

     G                    C
Then all I do is think of you

    G                       C            G    C  G
And all my foolish problems seem to fade away
[Chorus]
C                   Bm

C                      Bm
I thought there was no reason

    Bb                 C
For all these things I do

        C                 Bm     Am              G   
But the smile that I sent out returned with you
