  G                                                C    CM7 
I know that it is freezing, but I think we have to walk
       G                                                   C    CM7
I keep waving at the taxis, they keep turning their lights off
    Am                                            D
But Julie knows a party at some actor's West side loft
             C              Am             C        D         G
Supplies are endless in the evening by the morning they'll be gone

     G                                         C    CM7 
When everything is lonely I can be my own best friend
           G                                         C    CM7 
I'll get a coffee and the paper, have my own conversations
         Am                                           D
with the sidewalk and the pigeons and my window reflection
           C             Am             C         D        G
The mask I polish in the evening by the morning looks like shit
 
      C                                  G
And I know you have a heavy heart, I can feel it when we kiss
   C                                           G                   A7
So many men stronger than me have thrown their backs out trying to lift it
    C            Em              G        D     C
But me I'm not a gamble, you can count on me to split
           C               Am             C       D     G
The love I sell you in the evening by the morning won't exist

               G                                              C    CM7 
You're looking skinny like a model with your eyes all painted black
          G                                                 C    CM7 
Just keep going to the bathroom, always say you'll be right back
      Am                                                   D
Well, it takes one to know one, kid, I think you've got it bad
              C           Am             C         D      G
But what's so easy in the evening by the morning's such a drag

        G                                              C    CM7 
I got a flask inside my pocket, we can share it on the train
           G                                               C    CM7 
And if you promise to stay conscious I will try and do the same
         Am                                              D
We might die from medication, but we sure killed all the pain
             C             Am             C       D       G
But what was normal in the evening by the morning seems insane

        C                                  G
And I'm not sure what the trouble was that started all of this
    C                                    G                A7
The reasons all have run away, but the feeling never did
         C                 Em                G      D      C
It's not something I would recommend, but it is one way to live
              C             Am               C       D     G
Cause what is simple in the moonlight by the morning never is
        C             Am                  C       D    Em   Esus2 Em
It was so simple in the moonlight now it's so complicated
        C             Am                  C            Am
It was so simple in the moonlight, so simple in the moonlight
        C             Am            G
So simple in the moonlight (2 taps)
