KEY OF F



 -6b  -5     5
Half past twelve

 4   -4   -4   -4  4   -4    5
And I'm watch-ing the late show 

-6b  7  -7   -7 7  -7
in  my flat all a-lone

-6b 7  -7  -7   -7   8   -7   7 -6b -6 -6b
How I hate to spend the eve-ning on my own

-6b -5   5
Au-tumn winds

 -4   4   -4   -4  4  -4  5
Blow-in’ out-side my win-dow 

-3b 4  -4  -4  -4   4   -4
as  I look a-round the room

-3b  4   -4  -4 -4  5   -4     4 -3b  -3  -3b
And it makes me so de-pressed to see the gloom

   4     4  4  4    -4   5
There's not a soul out there

 4  4   4   4  -4    5
No one to hear my prayer


(CHORUS)

 4   4  4   4  4   4 -5 -4  4 -3b  4   -3b
Gim-me gim-me gim-me a man af-ter mid-night

  -4   -4   4 -3b 4  -3b  -3b  -3b  -3  -2 -3b -3
Won't some-bo-dy help me chase the sha-dows a-way

4   4  4   4  4   4 -5 -4  4 -3b  4   -3b
Gim-me gim-me gim-me a man af-ter mid-night

 -4  -4    4    -3b   4   -3b
Take me through the dark-ness 

-3b -3b   -3   3  4  -3b
to  the break of the day


Verse 2 plays same as verse 1

Movie stars
Find the end of the rainbow, 
with a fortune to win
It's so different from the world 
I'm living in Tired of T.V.
I open the window and I gaze into the night
But there's nothing there to see, 
no one in sight
There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

(CHORUS)



4   4  4   4  4   4 -5 -4  4 -3b  4   -3b
Gim-me gim-me gim-me a man af-ter mid-night

4   4  4   4  4   4 -5 -4  4 -3b  4   -3b
Gim-me gim-me gim-me a man af-ter mid-night

There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer



 4   4  4   4  4   4 -5 -4  4 -3b  4   -3b
Gim-me gim-me gim-me a man af-ter mid-night

  -4   -4   4 -3b 4  -3b  -3b  -3b  -3  -2 -3b -3
Won't some-bo-dy help me chase the sha-dows a-way

 4   4  4   4  4   4 -5 -4  4 -3b  4   -3b
Gim-me gim-me gim-me a man af-ter mid-night


-4  -4    4    -3b   4   -3b
Take me through the dark-ness 

-3b -3b   -3   3  4  -3b
to  the break of the day
