Verse 1
(C major) The (G major) time (C minor) (G major) (C minor) (C major) is
(C minor) midnight,
the place is crowded, (C major)
(C minor) the girl is missing
and mister that's doom. (Ddim) (G major)
That's why (C major) night af (C minor) ter night, (F minor)
I keep try (Adim) ing to (A flatdim) fight
(D flat major) off the (Ddim) gloom. (G major)
Desperate (C minor) hours
The rain has fallen,
(C major) the street's (C minor) (Ddim) deserted
The (Gdim) (D flat major) blues (C minor) are dragging
me (F minor) back to my room
(Ddim) An (G major) d I climb every stair
(C minor) with (F minor) a heart (B flat major) that's
(E flat major) as bare as a (Ddim) tomb (G major)
Des (C minor) perate hours
Oh Lord, (G minor) (G major) help me
(C major) Where (C minor) (G major) is (C major) she (C minor)
Why'd (G major) she set me (C major) free
When I don't (G major) want to be (C major)
Can (A minor) 't she see (D major) I need (Adim) her
so (Ddim) desperately (B flat major)
Desper (G major) ately
The (F minor) sky may (C minor) clear up,
the (D minor) day may cheer (Ddim) up,
(G major) and yet I (C minor) know there'll (F minor) be
darkness at (B flat major) noon. (G minor)
(G major) For as long as she's gone, (C major)
I'll (F minor) go on (B flat major) in a (E flat major) world (Ddim) out of tune.
(G major) Every day, (C minor) every (E flat major) (B flat major) way,
(Ddim) (G major) evermore, (D flat major)
(C minor) twenty (Ddim) -four des (G major) perate (F minor) hours,
(C minor) (C major) (G major) (C minor)
desperate hours, (G major) desper (C minor) ate
Outro 1
