[Verse]
         E               G#m                   
When the day is done and there's nowhere to run
        A                       B               
And the people of the city have all lost and won
   E                   G#m            
In your city dress you stand and stare
        A                           B             
And you smoke another cigarette and comb your hair
        A          E     
And the light that shines
       F#m7       Bsus4          A        E   
Paints a trace of sadness on the street I wait
F#m7            B          A
I can't seem to get to you ■
       E                   G#m         
Oh you start to sway check your Cartier
            A                      B             
'cause it's gettin' late you can't afford to wait
       E                G#m          
So you move along where it's goin' on
        A                       B                     
And the people of the night are playin' 'till the dawn
A           E          
And the sun that shines
F#m7              Bsus4           A    E       
Paints a trace of sadness in your eyes that cry
F#m7        B      A
Wishin' and hopin' ■


[Chorus]
E                    A    
■ Sweet sweet is the night
B           E   
Now you are near
                   A   
Dark dark were the days
B    E        
They disappear
                   A    
Sweet sweet is the night
B           A    E
Now you are near ■


[Verse]
F#m7 Am7          E                      G#m            
■    ■   Well you did your thing and you lost your wings
    A                        B         
And you hurt so bad you lost everything
        E                      G#m      
And the tears that fall on the city wall
A                       B               A          E     
Will fade away with the rays of morning light that shines
F#m7           B           A           E     
Paints a smile across your pretty face I know
F#m7          B       A       E
Everything is alright alright ■


[Chorus]
      A                 
Sweet sweet is the night
B           E   
Now you are near
                   A   
Dark dark were the days
B    E        
They disappear
                   A    
Sweet sweet is the night
B           A   
Now you are near
G#m F#m7 Am7 E
■   ■    ■   ■
                   A    
Sweet sweet is the night
    B       E   
Now you are near
                   A   
Dark dark were the days
B    E        
They disappear
            A           
Sweet sweet is the night
B           C   
Now you are near
