Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

I know that it is freezing but I think we have to walk

 I just keep waving at the taxis, they keep turning their lights off

 But Julie knows a party at some actor's west side loft

 Supplies are endless in the evening, by the morning they'll be gone

When everything is lonely, I can be my own best friend

 I'll get a coffee and the paper, have my own conversations

 With the sidewalk and the pigeons and my window reflection

 The mask I polish in the evening, by the morning looks like shit

 And I know you have a heavy heart, I can feel it when we kiss

 So many men stronger than me have thrown their backs out trying to lift it

 But me I'm not a gamble, you can count on me to split

 The love I sell you in the evening, by the morning won't exist

You're looking skinny like a model with your eyes all painted black

 You just keep going to the bathroom, always say you'll be right back

 Well, it takes one to know one, kid, I think you've got it bad

 But what's so easy in the evening, by the morning's such a drag

I got a flask inside my pocket, we can share it on the train

 And if you promise to stay conscious, I will try and do the same

 We might die from medication but we sure killed all the pain

 What was normal in the evening, by the morning seems insane

 And I'm not sure what the trouble was that started all of this

 The reasons all have run away but the feeling never did

 It's not something I would recommend but it is one way to live

 'Cause what is simple in the moonlight, by the morning never is

 It was so simple in the moonlight, now it's so complicated

 It was so simple in the moonlight, so simple in the moonlight

No Chords C

It was so simple in the moonlight
