D
There's a wordless moon that's watching tonight
                                     A
There's a garden that's left to grow wild
D
There's a sound  with no name when a far away train
             A       D
Cries like a unloved child
D
The paint on the wall is peeling away
                                       A
There's a photograph that fades on the shelf
        D
But the memory stays of a love that is gone
                A     D
And I'm dancing by myself
G       D
Why why I wanna know
A                               D
She went and left me nowhere to go
G       D
Why why tell me my friend
D                 A         D
It's midnight and lonesome again

D
The moon's still alone and I wonder sometimes
                             A
If that why the train has to cry
     D
So I ask right out loud

But there's no answer now
                       A      D
Cause I'm just talking to the sky
D
Now the morning is time to get ready
                                  A
In the evening you take off your shoes
D
Well you work all the day till the sun's gone away
D                 A            D
But midnight lays claim to the blues
G       D
Why why I wanna know
A                               D
She went and left me nowhere to go
G       D
Why why tell me my friend
D                 A         D
It's midnight and lonesome again
