Standard (EADGBE)

– – -

(listen to the song for timing and rhythm)

As I lay down with my lady

The sounds of the night keep me warm

I'm living a city life - I'm living maybe

But tonight there's no reason to be strong

Romantic poets guard the darkness

My my all at such an early age

An old man sheds a tear

He opens a little gold locket

He thought his little girl was lost in an Indian raid

Somewhere in these night lights lies the answer

And you can get diamonds by the yard

A tiffany dream - A porcelain dancer

An old man (/Olivier!) playing blues guitar

Chorus

Midnight I surrender

I live beneath your ancient spell

You've been my lover since I can't remember

You save my life with the stories you tell
