INTRO?: chords from chorus

         E                       Abm
When the day is done and there's nowhere to run
        A                          B
And the people of the city have all lost and won
        E              Abm
In your city dress you stand and stare
        A                           B
And you smoke another cigarette and comb your hair
        A            E/Ab
And the light that shines
F#m               B
Paints a trace of sadness
          A        E
On the street, I wait
    F#m               B
But I can't seem to get to you

        E                       Abm
Oh, you start to sway, check your Cartier
          A                        B
'Cos it's getting late, you can't afford to wait
       E                     Abm
So you move along where it's going on
        A                              B
And the people of the night are playing 'till the dawn
           A       E/Ab
And the sun that shines
F#m               B
Paints a trace of sadness
        A           E
In your eyes that cry
F#m          B
Wishing and hoping
   A
Oh Oh


   CHORUS: 
   E                     A
   Sweet, sweet is the night
       B            E
   Now you are near
   E                        A
   Dark, dark were the days
        B         E
   They disappear
   E                     A
   Sweet, sweet is the night
       B            A  E/Ab  F#m  Am
   Now you are near

         E                      Abm
Well you did your thing and you lost your wings
        A                    B
And you hurt so bad you lost everything
        E                      Abm
And the tears that fall on the city wall
     A                  B
Will fade away with the rays of morning
A            E/Ab
Light that shines
F#m                B               A        E
Paints a smile across your pretty face, I know
F#m           B
Everything is alright
     A
Yeah alright

   REPEAT CHORUS x2
