C# F# C#
I know a place where the lovers go
Ab
We went there once not long ago
Bbm F# Ab
And now you’re gone I’ll go there once again
C#
I’ll say farewell to our little motel
Ebm Ab C#
It was just one night... and we slept like hell
Bbm Ebm
Though I swear I’d never seen you look at me the way that you did then
Ab C# C#7
And now I’ll never see you again
F# Ab C#
Over there is where you tossed that old umbrella
F# Ab C# Bbm
As you shook the raindrops from your hair
Ebm Ab Bbm
There’s the sink where you took a drink of water
Fm F# Ab C#
And laughing, you collapsed into that very chair
F#
I could close my eyes and cross the room and never stumble
Ab C# C#7
I could close my eyes and swear I felt you there
F# Ab Bbm
Over there is the corner where I kissed you
Fm F# Ab C#
How I’ve missed you, and tonight you look as lovely as a prayer
Ab Ab
It’s too much, it’s too much
Bbm A
I’m doing it again
C# Ab
You’re not here, you’re not here
C#
And you haven’t been
Ebm
One more night in the farewell motel alone
Ab C# F#m C#
And in the morning I’ll go home, home, home
C# F#m C#
Darling, I would go to such great lengths
C# F#m C#
To once again smell your shampoo upon these sheets
