D F#m Bm D G D Em A

D F#m Bm
well , it’s after midnight and the stars are shining bright
D G D Em A
and a big fat moon is dancing on the sea , and i’m thinking , oh my . . .
D F#m Bm
and that old man in the sky he’s looking me right in the eye
D G D
and he’s wondering why , and he’s saying “little singer ,
Em A D F#m
why aren’t you sleeping , why aren’t you sleeping? ”
Bm D G D
oh , the day is hanging heavy on my eyes ,
G Em A D G D
i guess the time has come to say goodnight . . .

A D A G D
and may your dreams take you travelling all night long ,
Bm F#m Em A
with an angel by your side when the wind blows strong
D A G D
oh stay away from that city , that sad and lonely place ,
Bm F#m G
i will lead you to the river , here’s the door ,
A
and the key is turning round ,
F# Bm D
close the shutters , do not cry , there’s a new moon in the sky;
D Bm Em A
oh hold on to your love , until your time has come to say . . . goodnight .
