Burning Of the Midnight Lamp

Intr: C F Bb C C7 F The morning is dead D And the day is, too B There's nothing left here to meet me E But the velvet moon C G G6 G All my loneliness I have felt today D It's a little more than enough F To make a man throw himself away G Am G And I continue Am G To burn the midnight lamp C G Alone {Intr.} F Now the smiling portrait of you D Is still hangin' on my frowning wall B E It really doesn't, really doesn't bother me too much at all C It's just the ever falling dust G G6 G That makes it so hard for me to see D That forgotten earring layin' on the floor F Facing coldly towards the door G Am G I continue Am G To burn the midnight lamp C G Lord, alone {SOLO} Loneliness is such a drag {Intr.} F So here I sit to face D That same old fire place B Gettin' ready for the same old explosion E Goin' through my mind C And soon enough time will tell, G G6 G About the serpents in the wishing well D And someone who will buy and sell for me F Someone to toll my bell G Am G But I continue Am G To burn the midnight lamp Am G Lord, alone (C G) Darlin' can't ya hear me callin' you? So lonely Gonna have to blow my mind Lonely
