Capo 2: 


C                                                 F 
I know that it is freezing but I think we have to walk 
       C                                                        F 
I just keep waving at the taxis, they keep turning their lights off 
    Dm                                            G 
But Julie knows a party at some actor's west side loft 
             Dm             F               Dm       G         C 
Supplies are endless in the evening, by the morning they'll be gone 


C                                               F 
When everything is lonely, I can be my own best friend 
           C                                            F 
I'll get a coffee and the paper, have my own conversations 
         Dm                                             G 
With the sidewalk and the pigeons and my window reflection 
           Dm            F               Dm      G          C 
The mask I polish in the evening, by the morning looks like shit 


      F                                  C 
And I know you have a heavy heart, I can feel it when we kiss 
   F                                           C                   Dm   G 
So many men stronger than me have thrown their backs out trying to lift it 
    Am                           C               F 
But me I'm not a gamble, you can count on me to split 
           Dm              F               Dm      G     C  
The love I sell you in the evening, by the morning won't exist 


C                                                             F 
You're looking skinny like a model with your eyes all painted black 
              C                                                 F 
You just keep going to the bathroom, always say you'll be right back 
         Dm                                                G 
Well, it takes one to know one, kid, I think you've got it bad 
              Dm          F               Dm        G      C 
But what's so easy in the evening, by the morning's such a drag 


C                                                      F 
I got a flask inside my pocket, we can share it on the train 
           C                                                F 
And if you promise to stay conscious, I will try and do the same 
         Dm                                             G  
We might die from medication but we sure killed all the pain 
         Dm            F               Dm       G      C 
What was normal in the evening, by the morning seems insane 


            F                               C 
And I'm not sure what the trouble was that started all of this 
    F                                   C            Dm  G 
The reasons all have run away but the feeling never did 
         Am                                 C              F 
It's not something I would recommend but it is one way to live 
              Dm             F                 Dm       G     C 
'Cause what is simple in the moonlight, by the morning never is 


          Dm            F                   Dm      G     Am   
It was so simple in the moonlight, now it's so complicated 
          Dm                       Dm  
It was so simple in the moonlight, so simple in the moonlight 
                          C 
It was so simple in the moonlight
