Lyrics

The (F)sun is near ly gone,

the (Gdim)lights are turn ing on, a (A7)sil ver shine that (Dm)stretch es (C)to the (Fmaj7)sea.

We’ve (F)stum bled on a view that’s (Gdim)tai lor made for two;

(A7)what a shame those (Dm)two are (C)you and (Fmaj7)me.

Some (Gm)oth er girl and guy

would (Fmaj7)love this swirl ing sky;

but there’s (Gm)on ly you and I,

and (Fmaj7)we’ve got

(A)no shot.

(Bbmaj7)This could nev er be;

you’re (Am7)not the type for me,

and there’s (Gm)not a spark in sight.

(F)What a,

a (C7)waste of a (C7)lov e ly (F)night.

You (G)say there’s noth ing here; well (Adim)let’s make some thing clear: I (B)think I’ll be the one to (D)make that (G)call.

And (G)though you look so cute in your (Adim)po ly es ter suit, you’re (D)right: I’d nev er fall for you at (G)all.

And (Am)may be this ap peals

to (Gmaj7)some one not in heels, or to (Am)an y girl who feels

there’s (Gmaj7)some chance for (B)ro mance.

(C)But, I’m frank ly feel ing (D)noth ing.

Is that (Cmaj7)so?

Or it could be less than (D)noth ing.

Good to (C)know!

So you a (D7)gree?

That’s right.

(C)What a waste of a (D)love ly (Am7)night!
