[B]
[E] [A]
[Bm]
[E] [C#m]
[Bm]
Just [E] across [C#] from the [Bm] hospital, still [E] inside of [Bm] the red lights, a couple [E] blocks from the [C#] Orthodox [Bm] Church, that's where the [E] old poet [C#] lived.
[Bm] In his [E]
eyeglasses, [C#] in his [Bm]
necktie, at the [E] window
[C#] looking [Bm] down, on the [E] young men [F#] [Bm] passing by, on [E] the fullness [C#] of the town.
[B] Full of them good time gamblers, full of [G] their restless [C#]
wives, [B] full of them midnight riders, out in the corridor on a Friday night, out in the brightness of a [E] Friday
[B] night.
[A]
[E] [Bm]
And the big [E] horns [C#] blowed, and the pianos [Bm] played, and the [E] music rose [C#] to the old [Bm] man's ears.
I guess [E] those [C#] were the olden [Bm] days, I guess [E] [C#] those were the golden years.
Cause now [E] the town is empty, [B] empty as a mirror, [A] empty as the harbor [E] and the barber's chair.
Where [G] did the old poet go?
[A]
Asked [B] around,
[E] nobody [C#]
knew.

[B]
[A] [E]
[F#] Maybe [E] I [C#] came too [Bm] early, maybe [E] I came [F#] too late.
[Bm]
I'm waiting in the shadows [E] of the [F#] scaffolds of the old cafes where you told [E] me to wait.
[F#]
[Bm] And I've got [E] this lingering [C#] [Bm] feeling, it's [B] like I slipped [F#] between the fingers [B] of the century.
[F#] I know [B] you know, [E]
[B]
I'll be a good time gambler, I'll be [D] a restless [A] wife.
[C#m]
[B] I'll be a midnight rider, out in the [E] corridor on a Friday night.
[B] Call me a good [A] [E] time gambler, [B] call [D] me a [C#m] restless wife.
[B]
[A] Call me a [E] midnight [B] rider, out [A] in the [E] corridor on a Friday night.
[B]
Out in [A] the brightness [E] of a Friday night.
[D#] Call [A] me the brightness [E] of a Friday [C#]
night.
