D5                                      F

Wide awake in the middle of the night



         G         D5

I wonder how she's feelin'



F                                 C

Is it just a trick of the light



G                 D5

Or is her ceiling peeling?



F                        F                

She's sitting up in bed, shakin' her head



              G       D5

At a copy of "True Confessions"



        F                            C

Ooh, it must seem like a fairy tale



     G               D5

To a woman of her profession



[chorus]



            F->G                F->G

But was I all right? (was I all right?)



      C                         F

Did I take you to the height of ecstasy?



       F->G               F->G

Was I all right? (was I all right?)



      C                 F

Did a shadow of emotion cross your face



                                    D5

Or was it just another trick of the light?



[Bass solo: over verse chords]



[chorus]

But was I all right? (was I all right?)

Did I take you to the height of ecstasy?

Was I all right? (was I all right?)

Did a shadow of emotion cross your face

Or was it just another trick of the light?



Come on, tell me



F                           C                     Dm

What's a nice girl like you doin' in a place like this?



Bb              F                 C

They don't make girls like you no more



        Dm             Bb

And I'd like to get to know you



   G                 Bb

On closer terms than this



      G                           C

But I guess you've heard it all before



[opening riff]



D                  F

Lady of the night



          G               D

Won't you steal away with me?



F                   C

Lady of the night



          G               D

Won't you steal away with me?



    F             F                          

The money's lyin' on the floor, she looks at me



G                    D

Shakes her head and sighs



F                   

Out of time, out the door



C              G        D

Red light shinin' in my eyes



But was I all right? (was I all right?)

Did I take you to the height of ecstasy?

Was I all right? (was I all right?)

Did a shadow of emotion cross your face

All right?



But was I all right?

All right?
