G                                                 C 
I know that it is freezing but I think we have to walk 
      G                                                   C 
Keep waving at the taxis, they keep turning their lights off 
     Am                                            D 
But Julie knows a party at some actor's west-side loft 
              Am            C               Am        D          G 
Supplies are endless in the evening, by the morning, they'll be gone
[Versetto]
     G                                           C 
When everything is lonely, I can be my own best friend 
         G                                        C 
I get a coffee and the paper, have my own conversations 
         Am                                            D 
With the sidewalk and the pigeons and my window reflection 
           Am            C               Am        D         G 
The mask I polish in the evening, by the morning looks like shit
[Ritornello]
      C                                 G 
And I know you have a heavy heart, I can feel it when we kiss 
   C                                           G                     A7 
So many men stronger than me have thrown their backs out, trying to lift it 
    C             Em              G       D     C 
But me, I'm not a gamble, you can count on me to split 
           Am              C               Am        D        G 
The love I sell you in the evening, by the morning, won't exist
[Versetto]
G                                              C 
You're looking skinny like a model with your eyes all painted black 
          G                                                C 
Just keep going to the bathroom always say you'll be right back 
         Am                                              D 
Well it takes one to know one kid, I think you've got it bad 
              Am          C               Am        D        G 
But what's so easy in the evening, by the morning's such a drag 
[Versetto]
            G                                              C 
I've got a flask inside my pocket, we can share it on the train 
            G                                                C 
And if you promise to stay conscious, I will try and do the same 
               Am                                             D 
Yeah we might die from medication but we sure killed all the pain 
         Am            C               Am        D        G 
What was normal in the evening, by the morning, seems insane
[Ritornello]
         C                                    G 
And I'm not sure what the trouble was, that started all of this 
      C                                  G      A7 
The reasons all have run away, but the feeling never did 
     C                      Em              G     D           C 
It's not something I would recommend but it is one way to live 
               Am            C                 Am       D      G 
'Cause what is simple in the moonlight, by the morning, never is
[Outro]
              Am           C                  Am      D     Em 
Yeah it was simple in the moonlight, now it's so complicated 
           Am            C             Am            C            Am 
It was so simple in the moonlight, so simple in the moonlight, so simple in 
    C          G 
the moonlight...
