G C
Up all night I could not sleep
G C
The whiskey that I drank was cheap
G C D
With shakin' hands I wait and I lit up my last cigarette
G C
Well the sun came the night had fled
G C
And sleepy-eyed I reached my bed
G C G C G
I saw you sleepy dreamin there all covered and warm
C Bm
CHORUS: South city midnight lady
Bb C
I'm much obliged to you
C Bm Am G C G
You sure have saved this man who's soul was in need
C Bm
I thought there was no reason
Bb C
For all these things I do
C Bm Am G
But the smile that I said I've returned I'm with you
G C
When day has left the night behind
G C
And shadows roll across my mind
G C D
I sometimes find myself alone and out walking the street
G C
Yes and when I'm feelin' down and blue
G C
Then all I do is think of you
G C G C G
And all my foolish problems seem to fade away
CHORUS
LEAD
