[Primeira Parte]
E A
All the late night bargains have been struck
B C#m B/D# C#/G#
Between the satin beaus and their belles
F#m
And prehistoric garbage trucks
D7(9)
Have the city to themselves
E A
Echoes roars of dinosaurs
B C#m B/D# C#/G#
They're all doing the monster mash
F#m
And most of the taxis, most of the whores
D7(9)
Are only taking calls for cash

[Refrão]
A B
I don't know how it happened
G#m A9 A
It all took place so quick
E/B E A
But all I can do
B C#m7
Is hand it to you
B/D#
And your latest trick

[Próxima Parte]
( C#m A B G#m A )
( F#m B G# C#m G# )

[Segunda Parte]
E A
My door was standing open
B C#m B/D# C#/G#
Security was laid back and lax
F#m
But it was only my heart got broken
D7(9)
You must have had a pass key made out of wax
E
You played robbery with insolence
A B C#m B/D# C#/G#
And I played the blues on twelve bars down on Lover's Lane
F#m
And you never did have any intelligence to use
D7(9)
The twelve keys hanging off my chain

[Refrão]
[Próxima Parte]
( C#m A B G#m A )
( F#m B G# ( C#m ) G# )

[Terceira Parte]
E A
Now it's past last call for alcohol
B C#m B/D# C#/G#
Past recall has been here and gone
F#m
The landlord finally paid us off
D7(9)
The satin jazzmen have put away their horns
E A
And we're standing outside of this wonderland
B C#m B/D# C#/G#
Looking so bereaved and so bereft
F#m
Like a Bowery bum when he finally understands
D7(9)
The bottle's empty and there's nothing left

[Refrão]
A B
I don't know how it happened
G#m A9 A
It was faster than the eye could flick
E/B
E ( A )
But all I can do
B C#m7
Is hand it to you
B/D#
And your latest trick
[Final] C#m A B G#m A
  F#m       B
G# ( C#m ) G#
