Midnight.  Not a sound from the pavement.

-8 9 -9 9 7 -7 -7
Has the moon lost her mem'ry?

-6 7 -7 7 -6 6
She is smiling alone.

6 7 7 -5
In the lamplight,

6 -6 7 -7 -8 9 -8 -7 7
The withered leaves collect at my feet,

6 5 7 -3 -3 -4 5
And the wind begins to moan.

9 9 -8 9 -9 9 -7 9 9
Mem'ry.  All alone in the moonlight.

-8 9 -9 9 7 -7 -7
I can smile at the old days.

-6 7 -7 7 -6 6
I was beautiful then.

6 7 7 -5
I remember

6 -6 7 -7 -8 9 -8 -7 7
The time I knew what Happiness was,

6 5 7 7 -3 -4 5
Let the mem'ry live again.

-4 6 -4 -3 -4 6 -4 -3
Ev'ry street lamp seems to beat a

-4 6 6 -5 5 -5 -5
Fatalistic warning.

7 7 7 -8
Someone mutters,

-7 7 -6# -6# -6# -7
And the street lamp gutters,

7 -8 -8 -8 9# -9 -7
And soon it will be morning.

9 9 -8 9 -9 9 -7 9 9
Daylight.  I must wait for the sunrise.

-8 9 -9 9 7 -7 -7
I must think of a new life,

-6 7 -7 7 -6 6
And I mustn't give in.

6 7 7 -5
When the dawn comes,

6 -6 7 -7 -8 9 -8 -7 7
Tonight will be a memory too,

6 5 7 7 -3 5 5
And a new day will begin.

3 5 3 -2 -2 3 5 3 -2
Burnt out ends of smoky days,

-2 3 5 5 -3# 3# -3# -3#
The stale cold smell of morning.

-5# -5# -5# -5#
The street lamp dies.

7 -6 -5# -5 -5 -5 6
Another night is over.

-5# 7 7 7 -7 -7# -6
Another day is dawning.

-9# -9# -9 -9# 10# -9# -9#
Touch me.  It's so easy to leave me,

-9 -9# 10# -9# -7# 9 9
All alone with the mem'ry,

7# -7# 8 -7# 7# 7
Of my days in the sun.

7 -7# -7# -6
If you touch me,

7 7# -7# 8 -9 -9# -9 8 -7#
You'll understand what happiness is.

7 -3# -7# -7# 5 -5# -9#
Look, a new day has begun.
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
