Intro: A D (x2)

A

I walked you to the corner we stood beside the bus

D

And the tears rolled down our faces as the driver stared at us

A

Typical summer that time of year

D

When you go back to Toronto and I stay here

E

And I’ll miss the way you wake up

D

And the way that you sigh

E D A

And I’ll miss the way you turn your head away when you cry

E

I don’t think this time will fly

A D

Here comes the sad nights again

Bm E A

Here comes the sad nights again

Round about midnight when it’s still too hot to think

We’ll go back down to the neighborhood and get ourselves a drink

Everyday working not getting far

You know this town ain’t much for starting up it’s only

made for stars

Later when I’m walking

Underneath the starless sky

There’s a couple in the doorway and I think I hear them cry

But they turn their heads when I go by

CHORUS

F#m D F#m E

F#m D Bm E

Last days of summer San Gennaro Feast

There’s much hanging in the air and dancing in the streets

People line the corners and they stand beside the fires

And I’m watching from my window as the sparks go by

Somewhere there’s a gunshot

People scatter everywhere

But it happens everyday so there’s still laughter in the air

And as I lay down I wish you were here

CHORUS

Bm E A

Here comes the sad nights again

A-Asus2-A (repeat to end)
