D         F#m        Bm       F#m 
I'm walkin' through the summer nights 
D         F#m      Bm    F#m 
Jukebox playing low 
D         F#m        Bm       F#m 
Yesterday everything was goin' too fast 
D         F#m       Bm   F#m 
Today it's moving too slow 
G        C       G     C 
I got no place left to turn 
G         C      G     C    A 
I got nothing left to burn 
D             F#m              Bm          F#m 
Don't know if I saw you If I would kiss you or kill you 
D                  F#m                Bm       F#m 
It probably wouldn't matter to you anyhow 
G            D          A         E 
You left me standin' in the doorway cryin' 
            D            E7         D                              
I got nothing to go back to now 


D             F#m            Bm              F#m 
Maybe they'll get me, and maybe they won't 
D              F#m        Bm   F#m 
But not tonight and it won't be here 
D         F#m             Bm          F#m 
There are things that I could say but I don't 
D                F#m          Bm   F#m 
I know the mercy of God must be near 
G             C          G     C 
I've been ridin' the midnight train 
G           C          G      C    A   
I got ice water in my veins 
D         F#m         Bm          F#m 
I would be crazy if I took you back 
D         F#m              Bm       F#m 
It would go up against any rule 
G             D          A            E 
You left me standin' in the doorway cryin' 
D      E7      D 
Sufferin' like a fool 


D         F#m          Bm          F#m 
When the last rays of daylight go down 
D            F#m     Bm    F#m 
Buddy you're old no more 
D             F#m           Bm              F#m 
I can hear the church bells ringin' in the yard 
D         F#m          Bm    F#m 
I wonder who they're ringin' for 
G        C        G    C 
Oh I know I can't win 
G            C                G      C    A 
But my heart it just won't give in 
D          F#m           Bm              F#m 
I see nothin' to be gained by any explanation 
D           F#m             Bm      F#m 
There are no words that need to be said 
G              D             A             E 
You left me standin' in the doorway cryin' 
D         E7                D 
Blues wrapped around my head
