The morning is dead, and the day is too 
C                                     F       
there's nothing left here to greet me but the velvet moon 
C#                G#    
all my loneliness I have felt today 
D#                                F#                          
It's a little more than enough to make a man throw himself away 
 
G# 
And I continue            to burn the midnight lamp      alone

(repeat intro) 
Now the smiling portrait of you is still hanging on my frowning wall 
It really doesn't bother me too much at all 
It's just the ever falling dust that makes it so hard for me to see 
that forgotten earring laying on the floor facing coldly towards the door 
 
And I continue to burn the midnight lamp alone
