[Intro] Gmaj7 Dsus C Gmaj7 Dsus C Gmaj7 Dsus C Gmaj7 Dsus C [Verse 1]
Gmaj7                Dsus  C
Up all night I could not sleep

    Gmaj7                Dsus  C
The whiskey that I drank was cheap

     Gmaj7                    Dsus  C              D
With shakin' hands I wait and I lit up my last cigarette

         Gmaj7              Dsus  C
Well the sun came the night had fled

    Gmaj7                 Dsus  C
And sleepy-eyed I reached my bed

  Gmaj7               Dsus  C                  G     C/G   G
I saw you sleepy dreamin there all covered and warm
[Chorus]
C                   G/B
South city midnight lady

    Gm/Bb          Am7
I'm much obliged indeed

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

C                      G/B
I thought there was no reason

    Gm/Bb              Am7
For all these things I do

                C         G/B   Am          G
But the smile that I sent out returned with you
[Verse 2]
Gmaj7                       Dsus  C
When day has left the night behind

    Gmaj7               Dsus  C
And shadows roll across my mind

  Gmaj7                 Dsus  C                   D
I sometimes find myself alone and out walking the street

        Gmaj7                 Dsus  C
Yes and when I'm feelin' down and blue

         Gmaj7         Dsus  C
Then all I do is think of you

        Gmaj7         Dsus  C            G    C  G
And all my foolish problems seem to fade away
[Chorus]
C                   G/B

C                      G/B

For all these things I do

        C                 G/B     Am        G
