All the late night bargains have been struck
F#m7(b5) B A/C# B C#
Between the satin beaus and their belles
F#m
And prehistoric garbage trucks
D13(11+)
Have the city to themselves
E
Echoes roars dinosaurs
F#m7(b5) B A/C# B/D#
They're all doing the monster mash
C#/F F#m
And most of the taxis and the whores
D13(11+)
Are only taking calls for cash
A B B/A
I don't know how it happened
E/G# A9 A
It all took place so quick
A E/B E/G#
But all I can do
F#m/A B A/C#
is hand it to you
Bb/D# G#7
And your latest trick

My door was standing open
F#m7(b5) B A/C# B
Security was laid back and lax
C# F#m
But it was only my heart got broken
D13(11+)
You must have had a pass key made out of wax
E
You played robbery with insolence
F#m7(b5) B A/C# B/D#
And I played the blues in twelve bars down Lover's Lane
C#/F F#m
And you never did have the inteligence to use
D13(11+)
The twelve keys hanging off my chain
A B B/A
I don't know how it happened
E/G# A9
It all took place so quick
A E/B E/G#
But all I can do
F#m/A B A/C#
is hand it to you
Bb/D# G#7
And your latest trick

Now it's past last call for alcohol
F#m7(b5) B A/C# B
Past recall has been here and gone
C# F#m
The landlord finally paid us all
D13(11+)
The satin jazzmen have put away their horns
E
And we're standing outside of this wonderland
F#m B A/C# B/D#
Looking so bereaved and so bereft
C#/F F#m
Like a Bowery bum when he finally understands
D13(11+)
The bottle's empty and there's nothing left
A B B/A
I don't know how it happened
E/G# A9
It was faster than the eye could flick
A E/B E/G#
But now all I can do
F#m/A B A/C#
is hand it to you
B/D# G#7/9+
And your latest trick
