It's midnight, at the Starlite Diner
step 1 > Dm
You said meet me at a corner to twelve
Bbm
and I'm standing in the corner
F Dm
wishing you were here in my arms,
Step 2 > F Bb
fare thee well my old friends
F
fare thee well
F* F*/E F*
is it possible to love someone too much
C
you bet
Dm
the drugs are in safe
Bb
and the clothes are on the couch, intertwined
but none of them are yours
F Dm F
and all of them are mine
F
so cry
Step 3 > Dm
cry like a baby into an ocean of wishes
Bbm
but it don't ever rain
F Dm
on a street drenched with painted ladies
Step 2 > F Bb
fare thee well my old friends
F C
fare thee well
F* F*/E F*
have you ever slept it off to the bones
C Dm
and woken up at night my love
Bb
having dreamt you called them all
F Dm
every person you could never love
F
it's a blow out
on a birthday cake
Dm
and I'm a birthday candle
Bb**
floating on the lake
F Dm
where are you its getting late
F
its midnight at the starlite diner
step 1 > Dm
you said meet me at a corner to twelve
Bb
and I'm standing in the corner
F
oh there you are
Dm
oh there you are
Bb
oh there you are
F
oh there you are
F
