The classic opener to Abandoned Luncheonette.

Both Hall and Oates are playing acoustic guitars. This is my approximation of how 
to play it on one guitar.

First, there's a fill that is played occasionally between verses (and in the 
intro). Here's how I play it:

e|------7-------5-------3-------|
B|------8-------7-------3-------|
G|------7-------7-------4-------|
D|----------------------5-------|
A|----------------------5-------|
E|----------------------3-------|

INTRO:

G (320003@1)D (xx0232@1)C (x32010@1)G (320003@1)G2 D2 C2 (fill)

GI (320003@1)went downtown to see milady
Dshe (xx0232@1)stood me up and I stood there waiting
C (x32010@1)                                     Gbut (320003@1)it'll be all right when The Morning Comes

GNow (320003@1)I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair
DI've (xx0232@1)got nowhere to go, I can go anywhere
C (x32010@1)                                     (fill)
and it'll be all right when the Morning Comes

Am7 (x02010@1)                                    Bm7 (x20202@1)  
Just in passing, I'm not asking that you be anyone but you
Am7When (x02010@1)you come home try to come home alone
C (x32010@1)                       Dit's (xx0232@1)so much better with two

Now I'm out in the cold and I'm getting old
standing here waiting on you
but it'll be all right when the Morning Comes

The rest of the song is played using these chords.

NOTES:

G2 (7(10)9787)
