E5
   All the late night bargains have been struck 
F#5           B5           A5         B5   C#5
   Between the satin beaus and their belles 
F#5
   And prehistoric garbage trucks 
            D5
   Have the city to themselves 
E5
   Echoes roars dinosaurs 
F#5            B5         A5    B5
  They're all doing the monster mash 
C#5   F#5
   And most of the taxis and the whores 
       D5
   Are only taking calls for cash 
 

A5                   B5        B5
   I don't know how it happened 
      E5              A5  A5
   It all took place so quick 
A5      E5          E5
   But all I can do  
F#5 B5          A5
   is hand it to you 
Bb5       G#5
   And your latest trick

   My door was standing open 
F#5  B5          A5          B5
   Security was laid back and lax 
C#5            F#5
   But it was only my heart got broken 
             D5
   You must have had a pass key made out of wax 
              E5
   You played robbery with insolence 
                F#5          B5           A5         B5
   And I played the blues in twelve bars down Lover's Lane 
C#5       F#5
   And you never did have the inteligence to use 
             D5
   The twelve keys hanging off my chain 
 

A5                   B5       B5
   I don't know how it happened 
      E5              A5
   It all took place so quick 
A5      E5          E5
   But all I can do  
F#5 B5          A5
   is hand it to you 
Bb5       G#5
   And your latest trick

G#5         E5
   Now it's past last call for alcohol 
F#5     B5               A5         B5
   Past recall has been here and gone 
C#5     F#5
   The landlord finally paid us all 
              D5
   The satin jazzmen have put away their horns 
             E5
   And we're standing outside of this wonderland 
F#5    B5        A5            B5
   Looking so bereaved and so bereft 
C#5      F#5
   Like a Bowery bum when he finally understands 
               D5
   The bottle's empty and there's nothing left 
 

A5                      B5      B5
   I don't know how it happened 
  E5                            A5
 It was faster than the eye could flick 
A5          E5          E5
   But now all I can do  
F#5 B5          A5
   is hand it to you 
B5        G#5
   And your latest trick
