[Intro]

E  A  B  B9    (x3)

A    Emaj7    F#m7  Am9


[Verse 1]

         E                       Abm7
When the day is done and there's nowhere to run
        A                                    B
And the people of the city have all lost and won
        E              Abm7
In your city dress you stand you stare
        A                                        B
And you smoke another cigarette and comb your hair
         A           Emaj7
And the light that shines
F#m7              B
Paints a trace of sadness
       A          Emaj7
On the street I wait
    F#m7             B        A
But I can't seem to get to you


[Verse 2]

        E                        Abm7
Oh, you start to sway, check your Cartier
          A                         A/B        B
'Cos it's getting late, you can't afford to wait
       E                     Abm7
So you move along where it's going on
        A                              A/B           B
And the people of the night are playing 'till the dawn
          A      Emaj7
And the sun that shines
F#m7              B
Paints a trace of sadness
        A           Emaj7
In your eyes that cry
F#m7         B
Wishing and hoping
   A
Oh Oh


[Chorus]

E                    A
Sweet sweet is the night
    B    B9
Now you are near
E                     A
Dark dark were the days
     B  B9  
They disappear
E                    A
Sweet sweet is the night
    B       A9     Emaj7     F#m7  Am9
Now you are near


[Verse 3]

         E                      Abm7
Well you did your thing and you lost your wings
        A                    A/B       B
And you hurt so bad you lost everything
        E                      Abm7
And the tears that fall on the city wall
     A                  A/B       B
Will fade away with the rays of morning
A   9     Emaj7
Light that shines
F#m7               B                A9      E
Paints a smile across your pretty face I know
F#m7          B
Everything is alright
     A9
Yeah alright


[Chorus]

E                    A
Sweet sweet is the night
    B    B9
Now you are near
E                     A
Dark dark were the days
     B  B9  
They disappear
E                    A
Sweet sweet is the night
    B       A9     Emaj7     F#m7  Am9
Now you are near


[Outro]

E                    A
Sweet sweet is the night
    B    B9
Now you are near
E                     A
Dark dark were the days
     B  B9
They disappear
E                    A
Sweet sweet is the night
    B    B9   C  C    A
Now you are near
    A        F#m  F#m    E
Now you are near
C  E
