Intro:

C#*, C#, A, E, G#G#    (*Only lay down your fingers on the strings
              and mute them)


Verse 1:
   C#C#
Oh the wind whistles down
A augmentedA
On the cold dark street tonight
     E MajorE               G#G#
And the people they are dancing to the music vibe
     C#C#
And the boys chase the girls with the curls in their hair
A augmentedA
While the shy tormented youth sit way over there
     E MajorE
And the songs they get louder
            E minorEm
Each one better than before


Chorus (2x):
            C#C#
And you're singing the songs

Thinking this is the life
             A augmentedA
And you wake up in the morning and you're head feels twice the size
          E MajorE
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
             G#G#
Where you gonna sleep tonight?


Verse 2:
    C#C#
So you're heading down the road in your taxi for four
A augmentedA
And you're waiting outside Jimmy's front door
E MajorE                    G#G#
But nobody's in and nobody's home 'til four
C#C#
So you're sitting there with nothing to do
A augmentedA
Talking about Robert Riger and his motley crew
E MajorE                            G#G#
And where you're gonna go and where you're gonna sleep tonight

[Chorus]
