Chords with lyrics
Tuning: EADGBE
D MajorD
There's a wordless moon that's watching tonight
A augmentedA
There's a garden that's left to grow wild
D MajorD
There's a sound with no name when a far away train
A augmentedA D MajorD
Cries like a unloved child
D MajorD
The paint on the wall is peeling away
A augmentedA
There's a photograph that fades on the shelf
D MajorD
But the memory stays of a love that is gone
A augmentedA D MajorD
And I'm dancing by myself
G+G D MajorD
Why why I wanna know
A augmentedA D MajorD
She went and left me nowhere to go
G+G D MajorD
Why why tell me my friend
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
It's midnight and lonesome again
D MajorD
The moon's still alone and I wonder sometimes
A augmentedA
If that why the train has to cry
D MajorD
So I ask right out loud
But there's no answer now
A augmentedA D MajorD
Cause I'm just talking to the sky
D MajorD
Now the morning is time to get ready
A augmentedA
In the evening you take off your shoes
D MajorD
Well you work all the day till the sun's gone away
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
But midnight lays claim to the blues
G+G D MajorD
Why why I wanna know
A augmentedA D MajorD
She went and left me nowhere to go
G+G D MajorD
Why why tell me my friend
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
It's midnight and lonesome again
