Intro: A D A D A D7 A D
Am D7 A D7 A D7 A D7
Well, the clock says it's time to close now
I guess I'd better go now
I'd really like to stay here all night
The cars crawl past all stuffed with eyes
Street lights share their hollow glow
Your brain seems bruised with numb surprise
Still one place to go
Still one place to go
Em D7 Em D7 Em
Let me sleep all night in your soul kitchen
D7 Em D7 Em
Warm my mind near your gentle stove
D7 Em D
Turn me out and I'll wander baby
E7
Stumblin' in the neon groves
A D6 A D6
Well, your fingers weave quick minarets
A D6 A D6
Speak in secret alphabets
A D6 A D6
I light another cigarette
Am D A D6 Am D A D6
Learn to forget, learn to forget
A D A D6 Am D A D6
Learn to forget, learn to forget
Let me sleep all night in your soul kitchen
Warm my mind near your gentle stove
Turn me out and I'll wander baby
Stumblin' in the neon groves
Well the clock says it's time to close now
I know I have to go now
I really want to stay here
All night, all night, all night
