D5/A                                   F
Wide awake in the middle of the night

  G                D5/A
I wonder how she's feeling

F
 Is it just a trick of the light

C                  D5/A
 Or is her ceiling peeling?

      F
She's sitting up in bed, shaking her head

F     G                D5/A
 At a copy of "True Confessions"

      F
Oh it must seem like a fairy tale

C                     D5/A
 To a woman of her profession
[Chorus]
              G
But was I all right? (was I all right?)

      C                         F
Did I take you to the height of ecstasy?

          G
Was I all right? (was I all right?)

      C                 F
Did a shadow of emotion cross your face

         (D5/A)
Or was it just another trick of the light?

Did a shadow of emotion cross your face

F                           C                     D5/A
What's a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?

Bb                F                 C
  They don't make girls like you no more

        D5/A           Bb           G                Bb
And I'd like to get to know you on closer terms than this

G                                  C
 But I guess you've heard it all before

  Lady of the night

F          G               D5/A
 Won't you steal away with me?

F
 Lady of the night

C                          D5/A
 Won't you steal away with me?

    F
The money's lying on the floor

    F            G                    D5/A
She looks at me, shakes her head, and sighs

F
Out of time, out the door

C          G             D5/A
 Red light shining in my eyes
[Chorus]
              G
But was I all right? (was I all right?)

Did a shadow of emotion cross your face
