G                G/F#
  Meet me in the middle of the day
       Em
Let me hear you say
     G7/D
Everything’s okay
C                   C/B              D/A
  Bring me southern kisses from your room.

G                G/F#
  Meet me in the middle of the night
        Em
Let me hear you say
     G7/D
Everything’s alright.
C                  C/B             D/A
  Let me smell the moon in your perfume.


[Chorus 1]
    C                   G/B                       Am               D
Oh, gods and years will rise and fall and there’s always something more
C               G/B                     Am              D
Lost in talk, I waste my time, and it’s all been said before.
      C              G/B            Am                   D
While further down behind the masquerade, the tears are there.
C               G/B                    Am              D
I don’t ask for all that much – I just want someone to ca-a-a-are! That’s right, now!


[Verse]
G                G/F#

Everything’s okay
C               C/B               D/A
  Come on out beneath the shining sun.

G                G/F#
  Meet me in the middle of the night
        Em
Let me hear you say
     G7/D
Everything’s alright
C                C/B                 D/A
  Sneak on out beneath the stars and run!

[Chorus 2]
     C                     G/B                  Am             D
It’s king and queen and we must go down, now, beyond the chandelier
      C               G/B               Am                D
Where I won’t have to speak my mind and you won’t have to hear
C                  G/B                Am          D
Shreds of news and after thoughts and complicated scenes.
      C              G/B                Am            D
We’ll weather down behind the light and fade like magazines!

Ah-yaya-yay! I ******* to go now!
