Midnight Café
Something's Been Making Me BlueIntro solo: F – Bb/: F – Bb – C
Bb Gmi Love has shaken me, sometimes mistaken me, Bb F This time it's making me hide, Love has told on me then got a hold on me, Followed my heart to my pride.
Bb F But something's been making me blue, Bb F And somehow I can't talk it over with you Bb F Something's been making me sad, Bb F Something I'm missing that I never had, Gmi BbAnd I know what's making me blue, C FIs losing you.
Love was a game you played, a mistake I made, Never found it on time, I thought love was alive again, then it died again, Leavin' me wondering why.
But something's ben making me blue, And somehow I can't talk it over with you Something's been making me sad, Something I'm missing that I never had, And I know what's making me blue, Is losing you.
Gmi FWhat is this feeling that keeps you revealing your pride, Gmi Bb CWhy don't you listen, you can't reminisce on the times that she loved you and lied.
I know, but love was so real to me, how does it feel to be Tellin' yourself it's a lie But now love's got me wondering, got me fumbling, Got me stumbling by.
But something's ben making me blue, And somehow I can't talk it over with you Something's been making me sad, Something I'm missing that I never had, And I know what's making me blue, Is losing you.

Wild Wild Angels
DDon't talk to me of shattered dreams, AOf course you don't know what it means, G A DTo live for someone else, you can't just take, And when you're bitten by the truth, You blame it on your mis-spent youth, You never seem to learn by your mistakes.
G A D So don't talk to me of wild wild angels, Wild wild angels on the skyways, Those wild wild angels on the highways of your life, G A D G 'Cos it's people like you who never knew, D A G What wild wild angels have to face.
And I ain't hangin' round to see, You turn on someone else like me, I'm still alive and you know the way I live, But baby that's one way you'll never be, Such simple things you fail to see, You take back everything you ever give.
So don't talk to me of wild wild angels, Wild wild angels on the skyways, Those wild wild angels on the highways of your life, 'Cos it's people like you who never knew, What wild wild angels have to face.
So don't talk to me of wild wild angels, Wild wild angels on the skyways, Those wild wild angels on the highways of your life, 'Cos it's people like you who never knew, What wild wild angels have to face.
So don't talk to me of wild wild angels, Wild wild angels on the skyways, Those wild wild angels on the highways of your life, 'Cos it's people like you who never knew, What wild wild angels have to face.

Poor Lady (Midnight Baby) Intro solo: Hmi – A/: A – D/:
A D A DI met a girl in L.A. and she seemed alright to me, A D Hmi E She said she'd give me loving and she said it would be free, A D A D She told me she would call me or leave a message at the door, Hmi E A (solo – A – D/:) And left me wondering what I was in for.
By the next time that I saw her I had clean forgot her name And without her fancy make-up she just didn't look the same, So I totally ignored her and she sadly turned away, And through sympathy I told her she could stay.
F#mi A Oh poor lady, midnight baby, C#mi E No one wants your love at all, Oh poor lady, midnight baby, Now you're heading for a fall, D And you really think your're something, A E you know all the things to do F#mi D But poor lady, just a baby, E A (solo – A – D/:) There's a hundred more like you.
Now for two weeks more she was at my door, She would stay with me for days, As a lover she was frightening in so many different ways, But when it came to conversation she was totally absurd, Oh she'd sit for hours and never say a word.
Oh poor lady, midnight baby, No one wants your love at all, Oh poor lady, midnight baby, Now you're heading for a fall, And you really think your're something, you know all the things to do But poor lady, just a baby, There's a hundred more like you.
She spends her days in different ways, still trying to be hip, And at night she'll find she'll lose her mind, at a club along the strip, When her money goes she always knows she got something she can sell, It's the one thing that she really can do well.
Oh poor lady, midnight baby, No one wants your love at all, Oh poor lady, midnight baby, Now you're heading for a fall, And you really think your're something, you know all the things to do But poor lady, just a baby, There's a hundred more like you.

When my confidence was low she’d turn away, Didn’t know which way to go, she’d turn away

StrangerIntro: Gmi – Gmi7/11
GmiWhen the night has fallen And the moon is high CmiAnd you get that far away look in your eyes Gmi Oh can't you see you're acting like a stranger When your loving feelings are so hard to find And you can deceive me with your made-up linesLord knows you sound just like a stranger
Cmi So just in case you've changed your mind Gmi You've got love if you want it and it can't go wrong Cmi And just in case you find the time Gmi You've got love if you need it and it can't go wrong
But stranger you're in danger Of losing me Oh stranger you're in danger Of losing me
When the wind is howling and the rain comes down And you lie awake without a sound Feel like I'm living with a stranger When I try to hold you and you turn away There seems so little left for me to say Oh Lord knows you look just like a stranger
So just in case you've changed your mind You've got love if you want it and it can't go wrong And just in case you find the time You've got love if you need it and it can't go wrong But stranger you're in danger Of losing me Oh stranger you're in danger Of losing me Oh stranger you're in danger Of losing me Oh stranger you're in danger Of losing me

What Can I DoIntro solo: Emi – C – H /:
EmiEvery dream that I dream Ami Seems to float on by C Like a cloud in the wind H Way up in the skyEvery move that I make Seems to be the wrong way Like a cold black night After a summer day
Emi What can I do Ami What can I do DNothing to say but it used to be HNothing to say but it used to be Emi (Intro solo: Emi – C – H /:) What can I do
You still play my guitar With a smile on my face Now everything's changed My whole life's rearranged From the day I was born Sidle Jinks was my name Though I tried and I tried That name still remains
What can I do What can I do Nothing to say but it used to be Nothing to say but it used to be What can I do
Emi H C – H What can I do What can I do What can I do What can I do
I hear voices all singing But no one is there It's a ghost of my life Bringing past tense to mind Lokin' key inside me From the freedom and sin Oh come let me in I'll start all over again
What can I do What can I do Nothing to say but it used to be No no no no no no no no no What can I do What can I do What

Going HomeIntro: D – Dsus2
D – Dsus2 Well now that I'm leaving, Well now that I'm going home, It's hard for me to believe in, All those words now that I'm all alone.
D/C – D/H – D/G – D/: D – Dsus2 I'm going home, I'm going home
There were times when I had me shaking, Oh times like I have never known, Oh you know that I was mistaken, 'Cos you see my ego was overgrown.
I'm going home, I'm going home
AI'm going home were I can find it, G D To a place that I have seen, A It's a place that's been on my mind, G It seems I've been there before, A I know where I've been, Emi A D But maybe I've only seen it in my dreams.
There ain't no reason in my life, But Lord, there's an answer, There ain't no reason in my life, There must be an answer.
I'm going home, I'm going home
Dazed but still on reflection, Oh I guess that I was born to roam, So amazed that my recollection I know that where I'll be will be my home.
I'm going home, I'm going home
There ain't no reason in my life, life, I'm going home Lord there ain't no reason in my life, life, there's an answer
D – Dsus4 Midnight dreamer don't understand, Restless sleeper ain't got no plans, Ain't no reasons but there's a way There's an answer find it today.
I'm going home, I'm going home

I'll meet you at midnightIntro: E – F#mi
F#mi Hmi A summer evening on Les Champs Elyses Hmi F#miA secret rendezvous they planned for days I see faces in the crowded cafe A sound of Laughter as the music plays.
Jeanne-Claude's student at the University Louise-Marie is just a world away You recall the night they met was warm with laughter The words and music as she turned away.
E F#miI'll meet you at midnight Under the moonlight I'll meet you at midnight Hmi F#miOh, but Jeanne-Claude, Louise-Marie will never be
Each cigarette will light a thousand faces The shade is passing like a thousand years Midnight was turning into empty spaces The sound of laughter'd disappeared
Refrain.
A summer morning on Les Champs Elyses The entertainment in the street cafe The sunlight melting through an open doorway Jeanne-Claude has left some other day...
