A
I'm searching for phrases
D
To sing your praises.
AD
I need to tell someone.
AF#m
It's soon after midnight,
DEAE
And my day has just begun
A gal named Honey
Took my money
She was passing by.
It's soon after midnight,
DEAA7
And the moon is in my eye
D
My heart is cheerful.
A
It's never fearful.
DAA7
I've been down on the killing floors.
D
I'm in no great hurry,
A
I'm not afraid of your fury.
DAE
I've faced stronger walls than yours.
Charlotte's a harlot,.
Dresses in scarlet.
Mary dresses in green.
It's soon after midnight,
And I've got a date with the fairy queen.
They chirp and they chatter,
What does it matter?
They're lying and dying in their blood.
Two-timing Slim,
Who's every heard of him?
I'll drag his corpse through the mud.
It's now or never
More than ever.
When I met you, I didn't think you would do
Its soon after midnight,
And I don't want nobody but you.
