Dm                 Dm7               Bb        F/A     Dm
    You'll find me in a Berlin bar,      in a corner brooding,
Dm               Dm7               Bb               F/A   C9
    You know that I go very quiet...   when I am listening  to you,
           G                Dm               G                D
There's something special indeed, there's something special indeed!


G/D  D                       G
         In all the places where I've seen you shine, boy,
D                               G                  Em
    There's something very real in... how I feel, honey!


        C    G          Em   Bm                  Am            Am   G   F
It's in me,     it's in me-------, and you know it's for real,
                          Am  F   Dm        Am  F   Dm      Am  F  Dm

    The candle burning over your should - er---------,

    Is throwing... shadows from your saxophone,   a surly lady in tremor,
     G                    Dm                  G                Dm
The stars that climb from her bowels, those stars make towers...  on vowels!


D                          G
    You'll never see that you had all of me,
D                               G
    You'll never see the poe - try you stirred in me,
D                          G
    Of all the stars I've seen that shine so brightly,
D                     G                  Em
    Never known, nor felt in myself so rightly!
