They sat together in the park as the evening sky grew dark 
C7                                    F 
She looked at him and he felt a spark tingle to his bones 
Fm                            C           G         F 
It was then he felt alone and wished that he'd gone straight 
C                     G                    C 
And watched out for a simple twist of fate
[Strophe]

They walked along by the old canal, a little confused, I remember well 
C7                                      F 
And stopped into a strange hotel with a neon burning bright 
   Fm                         C       G      F 
He felt the heat of the night hit him like a freight train 
C             G                    C 
Moving with a simple twist of fate
[Strophe]
C                                    Cmaj7 
A saxophone someplace far off played as she was walking on by the arcade 
C7                                              F 
As the light bust through a beat-up shade where he was waking up, 
              Fm                     C         G      F 
She dropped a coin into the cup of a blind man at the gate 
C                    G                    C 
And forgot about his simple twist of fate

He woke up, the room was bare, he didn't see her anywhere 
C7                                         F 
He told himself he didn't care, pushed the window open wide, 
        Fm                           C          G     F 
Felt an emptiness inside to which he just could not relate 
C               G                    C 
Brought on by a simple twist of fate
[Strophe]
C                                  Cmaj7 
He hears the ticking of the clocks and walks along with a parrot that talks 
C7                                               F 
Hunts her down by the waterfront docks where the sailors all come in 
      Fm                             C    G       F 
Maybe she'll pick him out again, how long must he wait 
C                   G                    C 
One more time for a simple twist of fate
[Strophe]
C                        Cmaj7 
People tell me its a sin to know and feel too much within 
C7                               F 
I still believe she was my twin, but I lost the ring 
Fm                          C     G        F 
She was born in spring, but I was born too late 
C             G                    C 
Blame it on a simple twist of fate
