D C#m Bm A G
Some old hotel room in Memphis
Bm A G
I see the city through the rain
Bm A G D/F#
I'm just chasing me my time
Em A
And remembering some pain
Bm A G
See there once was a boy
Bm A G
And on the street he'd surely die
Bm A G D/F#
So the nightbird took him in
Em A
And she taught him how to fly
A G
See the nightbird softly fly
D
Why does she fly alone?
E C G
Is the moonlight just a flame for her memory?
D C#m
Now she's gone
D C#m Bm A G
Two bit bars and honky tonks
Bm A G
Any pleasure can be found
Bm A G D/F#
You can get just what you want
Em A
If you lay your money down
Bm A G
And loney sailors do their drinking
Bm A G
My, my, my how the brave men do die
Bm A G D/F#
And the nightbird sells her pleasures
Em A
Bringing tears to my eyes
A G
See the nightbird softly fly
D
Why does she fly alone?
E C G
Is the moonlight just a flame for her memory?
D C#m
Now she's gone
D C#m Bm A G
So I guess I'll go out walking
Bm A G
Lord, let the rain keep falling down
Bm A G D/F#
I guess I'll go chase some memories
Em A
On the dark side of town
A G
See the nightbird softly fly
D
Why does she fly alone?
E C G
Is the moonlight just a flame for her memory?
D C#m
Now she's gone
