Auto Scroll
| Intro: |
| C |
| G G7 F C |
| I came by myself to a very crowded place |
| G G7 |
| I was looking for someone |
| F C |
| who had lines in her face |
| C C7 F |
| I found her there but she was past all concern |
| C F Dm |
| I asked her to hold me, I said, "Lady unfold me." |
| C F |
| But she scorned me and she told me |
| G G7 C |
| I was dead and I could never return |
| G G7 F C |
| Well, I argued all night like so many have before |
| G G7 |
| Saying, "Whatever you give me, |
| F C |
| I seem to need so much more." |
| C C7 |
| Then she pointed at me where I |
| F |
| kneeled on her floor |
| C F |
| She said, "Don't try to use me |
| Dm |
| or slyly refuse me |
| C F |
| Just win me or lose me |
| G G7 C |
| It is this that the darkness is for." |
| Bridge: |
| G F C G x2 |
| G G7 |
| I cried, "Oh, Lady Midnight, |
| F C |
| I fear that you grow old |
| G G7 F C |
| The stars eat your body and the wind makes you cold." |
| C C7 F |
| "If we cry now," she said, "It will just be ignored." |
| C F Dm |
| So I walked through the morning, sweet early morning |
| C F |
| I could hear my lady calling |
| G G7 C |
| "You've won me, you've won me, my lord |
| G G7 C |
| You've won me, you've won me my lord |
| G G7 C |
| Yes, you've won me, you've won me, my lord |
| G G7 C |
| Ah, you've won me, you've won me, my lord |
| G G7 C |
| Ah, you've won me, you've won me, my lord." |
| Ending: |
| C G G F x2 |
