ROGER
C majorC      A minorAm
What'd you forget?

MIMI
C majorC    A minorAm
Got a light?

ROGER
C majorC    A minorAm        G+G
I know you - you're - you're shivering

MIMI
FF          G+G
It's nothing they turned off my heat
FF          G+G
And I'm just a little weak on my feet
G+G          A minorAm   G+G
Would you light my candle?
N.C.
What are you staring at?

ROGER
C majorC  A minorAm    C majorC      A minorAm  C majorC  A minorAm
Nothing, your hair in the moonlight
C majorC     A minorAm    G+G
You look familiar
G+G
Can you make it?

MIMI
FF      G+G
Just haven't eaten much today
       FF
At least the room stopped spinning
G+G
Anyway. What?

ROGER
C majorC  A minorAm    C majorC   A minorAm
Nothing, your smile reminded me of

MIMI
C majorC  A minorAm           G+G
I always remind people of - who is she?

ROGER
FF           G+G
She died. Her name was April.

MIMI
G+G
It's out again
FF        G+G
Sorry about your friend
G+G          A minorAm    G+G
Would you light my candle?

ROGER
G+G
Well

MIMI
G+G
Yeah. Ow!

ROGER
G+G
Oh, the wax - it's

MIMI
G+G
Dripping! I like it - between my

ROGER
G+G
Fingers, I figured ...
G+G      C majorC
Oh, well. Goodnight ...
C majorC A minorAm
C majorC   A minorAm
It blew out again?

MIMI
    C majorC      A minorAm
No - I think that I dropped my stash

ROGER
 C majorC     A minorAm    C majorC    A minorAm
I know I've seen you out and about
     C majorC   A minorAm
When I used to go out,
   G+G
Your candle's out

MIMI
  FF       G+G
I'm illin' - I had it when I walked in the door
FF       G+G
It was pure - is it on the floor?

ROGER
 A augmentedA
The floor?

MIMI
A augmentedA             G+G
They say I have the best ass
    A augmentedA          G+G
Below 14th street. Is it true?

ROGER
 G+G
What?

MIMI
A augmentedA
You're staring again.

ROGER
G+G
Oh no.
     A augmentedA
I mean you do - have a nice -
     C majorC     A minorAm
I mean - you look familiar

MIMI
C majorC     A minorAm
Like your dead girlfriend?

ROGER
C majorC     A minorAm
Only when you smile.
G+G
But I'm sure I've seen you somewhere else -

MIMI
FF         G+G
Do you go to the Cat Scratch Club?
    FF       G+G
That's where I work - I dance

ROGER
    FF         G+G
Yes! They used to tie you up -

MIMI
G+G
It's a living

ROGER
 FF         G+G
I didn't recognize you without the handcuffs

MIMI
G+G          A minorAm    G+G
We could light the candle
G+G           A minorAm    G+G
Oh won't you light the candle?

ROGER
C majorC    A minorAm   C majorC     A minorAm
Why don't you forget that stuff
C majorC       A minorAm    C majorC
You look like you're sixteen

MIMI
   A minorAm        C majorC   A minorAm
I'm nineteen - but I'm old for my age
   C majorC   A minorAm
I'm just born to be bad

ROGER
 C majorC     A minorAm     G+G
I once was born to be bad
     FF
I used to shiver like that

MIMI
   G+G
I have no heat - I told you

ROGER
   FF
I used to sweat

MIMI
  G+G
I got a cold

ROGER
G+G
Uh huh
          FF
I used to be a junkie

MIMI
FF
But now and then I like to

ROGER
G+G
Uh huh

MIMI
G+G
Feel good

ROGER
FF
Oh, here it - um

MIMI
FF
What's that?

ROGER
G+G
Candy bar wrapper

MIMI
G+G          A minorAm   G+G
We could light the candle
G+G             A minorAm    G+G
Oh, what'd you do with my candle?

ROGER
C majorC        A minorAm
That was my last match

MIMI
C majorC      A minorAm   C majorC
Our eyes'll adjust, thank
A minorAm
God for the moon

ROGER
C majorC    A minorAm     C majorC    A minorAm
Maybe it's not the moon at all
     C majorC            A minorAm
I hear Spike Lee's shooting down the street

MIMI
      C majorC A minorAm
Bah humbug ... Bah humbug

ROGER
FF
Cold hands

MIMI
G+G
Yours too.
FF       G+G
Big. Like my father's
FF
Do you wanna dance?

ROGER
G+G
With you?

MIMI
FF     G+G
No - with my father

ROGER
G+G
I'm Roger

MIMI
C majorC  A minorAm
They call me
C majorC  A minorAm    C majorC
They call me Mimi

C majorC
