Standard (EADGBE)

 on lonely guys like me,

The cabaret's and honky tonks,

the C flashing signs and lights,

A D broken heart could lose itself,

in the C glow of city G lights,

D Lights that say forgive her now,

in a G glass of sherry wine,

D Lights that offer other girls,

for G empty hearts like mine,

They paint a pretty picture,

of a C world that's gay and bright,

And it's D just a mask for loneliness,

 Be hind those city lights,

The D world was dark, God made the stars,

to G brighten up the night,

But the D guy that put those stars above,

I don't be G lieve he made those lights,

It's just a place for me to cry,

when C things don't turn out right,

A D place to run away and hide,

 be hind those city lights,

D Lights that say forget her love,

 in different atmosphere,

D Lights that lure are nothing but,

masquerade for tears,

They paint a pretty picture,

of two C arms that hold you tight,

and I D just can't say I love you

 to string of city lights,

Tag:

No, I D just can't say I love you,

 to string of city lights.
