SONG: MIDNIGHT SUMMER DREAM ARTIST: THE STRANGLERS TAB BY: DON CZARSKI EMAIL: [email protected] MIDNIGHT SUMMER DREAM THE STRANGLERS INTRO: Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m VERSE: Dsus2 Woke up on a good day C#sus2 F#m And the world was wonderful Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m A midnight summer dream had me in its spell Dsus2 I dreamt about an old man C#sus2 F#m Sat and watched the rain all night Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m He couldn't sleep a wink as all the drops fell PRE-CHORUS: Dsus2 He told me of the beauty F#m Hidden in our foreheads Dsus2 He told me of the ugliness Bm C#m We show instead Dsus2 C#sus2 And when we put a foot wrong, do we learn F#m From all the pain? Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m A midnight summer dream as he watched the rain CHORUS: E F#m Dsus2 Then at midnight he poured another drink C#sus2 And bent my ear E F#m Dsus2 After midnight we sat up half the night C#sus2 Or maybe more B G F#m And he began to tell me what it was all for VERSE: Dsus2 C#sus2 I woke up in an armchair F#m He had gone, I don't know where Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m Left me there to sit and look at the rain Dsus2 C#sus2 Don't remember much at all F#m But his words were echoing Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m A midnight summer dream and then wake again PRE-CHORUS Dsus2 Maybe I'll never find him F#m Maybe he's gone forever Dsus2 Maybe I'll have to sit here Bm C#m Watching the weather Dsus2 C#sus2 One thing's pretty certain, helped me F#m Make it in the night Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m Showed me somewhere else between wrong and right CHORUS: E F#m Dsus2 So at midnight if you can't sleep C#sus2 Then I can bend your ear E F#m Dsus2 After midnight we'll sit up half the night C#sus2 Or maybe more B G F#m And I'll begin to tell you what it is all for INSTRUMENTAL: Bm A Bm A B A B A Bm Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m VERSE: Dsus2 I Wake up on a good day C#sus2 F#m And the world feels wonderful Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m A Midnight summer dream has me in its spell OUTRO: Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m - TO FADE OUT
