It's four in the morning, [G] the end of December
[Em]
I'm writing you now just [A] to see if you're better
[Bm] New York is cold but I [G] like where I'm living
[Em]
There's music on Flinton Street [A] all through the evening
[D] And you tell me [A] you're building [D] your house
Deep [A] in the desert,
[B] are you living [A] on nothing now?
[Bm] Hope you're keeping some kind [A] of record, yes
[D] Jane came by with a lock of [A] your hair

clear?
Well, [B] the last time we saw you, [G] you looked so much older
[Em] A famous blue [A] raincoat was torn at the shoulder
[Bm] We stood in the station, [G] you met [Em] every train
But she never showed up, [A] I mean Lily Marlain
[D]

[Bm]
When she [A] got home,
[Bm] she was [A] nobody's wife
[D]
And I see you there with a rose in [A] your teeth
One more thin [Bm] gypsy thief

regards
[B] Well, what can I tell you?
[G] What can I tell you?
[Em] What can I possibly [A] say?
[Bm] I guess that I miss you
[G] I guess I forgive [Em] you
I'm glad that you stood in [A] my way
[D] And if you ever [A] come by here
Be [D] it for Jane [A] or for me
I [Bm] want you to know your enemy [A] is sleeping
I want you [Bm] to know your woman [A] is free
[D] And thanks for the trouble [A] you took from her eyes
I thought [Bm] it was there for good
So I never [A] really tried, [F#] oh
[D] And Jane came by with a lock of [A] your hair
Said you gave it [Bm] to her that night
When you planned to go [A] clear, oh
[F#] Oh,
[G] sincerely [A] a friend
