--Intro--
 E   G#7m  Gm7  F#m7 B7

--Verse 1--
 E
Well it's a big big city and it's always the same
         Abm7
Can never be too pretty tell me you your name
   Gm7  F#m7                                          B7
Is it out of line if I were so bold to say "Would you be mine"?

   E
Because I may be a beggar and you maybe the queen
          Abm7
I know I maybe on a downer am still ready to dream
     Gm7  F#m7                         B7
Now it's 3 o'clock time it takes for you to talk

--Chorus--
               E                             Abm7
So if you're lonely why'd you say your not lonely
             Gm7  F#m7
Oh your a silly girl, I know I hurt it so
      B7
It's just like you to come and go
      E                        Abm7
you know me no you don't even know me
               Gm7 F#m7
Your so sweet to try, oh my, you caught my eye
   B7
A girl like you's just irresistible

E  Abm7 Gm7 F#m7 B7

--Verse 2--
             E
Well it's a big big city and the lights are all out
          Abm7
But it's much as I can do you know to figure you out
    Gm7 F#m7
And I must confess, my hearts in broken pieces
         B7
And my heads a mess
         E
And it's 4 in the morning, and I'm walking along
            Abm7
Beside the ghost of every drinker here who has ever done wrong
     Gm7 F#m7
And it's you, woo hoo
                                     B7
That's got me going crazy for the things you do

--Chorus--
             E                      Abm7
So if your crazy I don't care you amaze me
              Gm7 F#m7
Oh your a stupid girl, oh me, oh my, you talk
  B7
I die, you smile, you laugh, I cry
      E                             Abm7
And only, a girl like you could be lonely
               Gm7 F#m7
And it's a crying shame, if you would think the same
   B7
A boy like me's just irresistible

--Whistle Solo / Middle 8--
D F#m7 Fm7 Em7 B7 x2

--Chorus--
         E                               Abm7
So if your lonely, why'd you say you're not lonely
             Gm7  F#m7
Oh your a silly girl, I know I hurt it so
       B7        
It's just like you to come and go
      E                         Abm7
And know me, no you don't even know me
              Gm7  F#m7
Your so sweet to try oh my, you caught my eye
   B7
A girl like you's just irresistible
