And We were part of the (Em)lone ly crowd (F#7sus)in side the (F#7)Sad Ca (B)fé.

Some of their (Em)dreams came true,

some just passed a (B)way.

And some of them (C#)stayed be hind (F#7sus)in side the (F#7)Sad Ca (B)fé.

The (F#7sus)clouds rolled

in

and (F#7sus)hid that

Now I look at the (E7)years gone by, and (Bm7)won der at the pow ers that (E7)be.

I don’t know why for tune (F#7)smiles on some,

Why don’t you meet me at (C#)mid night, babe, (F#7sus)in side the (F#7)Sad Ca (B)fé.
