C#m7    A
Late at night
E        B
Midnight movie
C#m7             A      E        B
Got no one to talk to, no one to see
C#m7            A
And I count the stars
E             B
As I lie awake, dear
C#m7             A
I know you ain't far
E                     B
But I know you ain't here    with me

A  B

E                   C#m7
So why do I get so lonely
A                               B
When there really ain't nothing wrong
E                                    C#m7
Cause I can sleep just fine when you hold me
A                          B
Can't sleep oh when you're gone
E                     C#m7
So why do I stay out drinking
A                            B
When I should just get back home?
E                       C#m7           A                  B
I guess the company of strangers is better than drinking alone



Too tired to sing

Walking down the street

Still can't sleep

There's just too many things

I got running around my head

I can't put my thoughts to rest

Think I'll be outside your door

When you wake I will confess that

(chorus)
