F

The kids 'round here look just like sticks,

F

They trade old licks with a beat up six,

Bb

I smile and catch the groove,

Gm

Gothic girls all dress in black, Serious as heart attacks,

C

It takes a little bit of getting used to,

F

The old man with the whiskey stains,

F

Lost the night forgot his name,

Bb

His poor wife will sleep alone again,

Dm			Bb

And it ain't hard to understand,

C					Bb

Why she's holding on to her own hand,

			F

It's midnight in Chelsea  sha la la la 

		Bb

Midnight in Chelsea sha la la la

Gm

No one's asking me for favours, No one's looking for a saviour,

C

They're too busy saving me



I've seen a lone, sloane ranger drive

seems her chauffeur took a dive

And sold her secrets to the sun

And later in a magazine

I finally figured what it means

To be a saint, not a queen



Two lustful lovers catch a spark

And chase their shadows in the dark

Someone's getting off tonight

Of a big red bus that's packed so tight

It disappears in a trail of light

Somewhere someone's dreaming baby it's all right...



It's midnight in Chelsea, midnight in Chelsea

No one's asking me for favors

No one's looking for a savoir

They're too busy saving me

Midnight in Chelsea, midnight in Chelsea

No one's pinned the dreams on me

No one's asking me to bleed

I'm the man I want to be

When Chelsea girls sing...



It's morning when I go to sleep

In the distant dawn a church bell rings

Another day is coming on

A baby's born, an old man dies

Somewhere young lovers kiss good-bye

I leave my soul and just move on

And wish that I was there to sing this song





It's midnight in Chelsea, midnight in Chelsea

No one's asking me for favors

No one's looking for a savior

They're too busy saving me



It's midnight in Chelsea, midnight in Chelsea

No one's pinned the dreams on me

No one's asking me to bleed

I'm the man I want to be

The man I want to be,the man I want to be

Midnight in Chelsea
