SONG: MIDNIGHT SUMMER DREAM ARTIST: THE STRANGLERS TAB BY: DON CZARSKI EMAIL: [email protected] INTRO: Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m VERSE:
       Dsus2
Woke up on a good day

C#sus2                      F#m
     And the world was wonderful

           Dsus2       C#sus2          F#m 
A midnight summer dream had me in its spell

  Dsus2    
I dreamt about an old man

C#sus2              F#m
Sat and watched the rain all night

                    Dsus2          C#sus2      F#m
He couldn't sleep a wink as all the drops fell
PRE-CHORUS:
   Dsus2 
He told me of the beauty

                        F#m
      Hidden in our foreheads

                    Dsus2  
He told me of the ugliness

                Bm  C#m
We show instead

    Dsus2                   C#sus2 
And when we put a foot wrong, do we learn

             F#m
From all the pain?

            Dsus2     C#sus2              F#m
A midnight summer dream as he watched the rain
CHORUS:
E          F#m                       Dsus2
  Then at midnight he poured another drink

                C#sus2
And bent my ear

E        F#m                        Dsus2
  After midnight we sat up half the night

        C#sus2
Or maybe more

        B         G                     F#m
And he began to tell me what it was all for
VERSE:
  Dsus2           C#sus2  
I woke up in an armchair

               F#m
He had gone, I don't know where

             Dsus2      C#sus2       F#m
Left me there to sit and look at the rain

              Dsus2   C#sus2  
Don't remember much at all

                   F#m
But his words were echoing

            Dsus2          C#sus2      F#m
A midnight summer dream and then wake again
PRE-CHORUS
                 Dsus2
Maybe I'll never find him

                F#m 
Maybe he's gone forever

                  Dsus2 
Maybe I'll have to sit here

Bm             C#m
  Watching the weather

            Dsus2    C#sus2 
One thing's pretty certain, helped me

       F#m
Make it in the night

              Dsus2        C#sus2          F#m 
Showed me somewhere else between wrong and right
CHORUS:
E        F#m                  Dsus2  
  So at midnight if you can't sleep

          C#sus2  
Then I can bend your ear

E        F#m                  Dsus2
  After midnight we'll sit up half the night

   C#sus2
Or maybe more

     B             G                      F#m
And I'll begin to tell you what it is all for
INSTRUMENTAL: Bm A Bm A B A B A Bm Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m VERSE:
         Dsus2 
I Wake up on a good day

C#sus2                         F#m
      And the world feels wonderful

             Dsus2                   C#sus2  F#m
A Midnight summer dream has me in its spell
