[Verse 1]
C F
In late night bars There ghost of Hopper
C F
Paints such melancholy colours
C F C F
With sullen neon lights
C F
In late night bars The ghost of Hopppers
C F
Speaks in whispers Only he can hear

Smiles like a lion Sighs like a lamb
C F
Dreams in muted symphonies
[Bridge]
Cm G
And while you’re waiting For your change
G# A# Gm D
In a diamond in the rain
[Verse 2]
C F
In late night bars The whims of Hopper
C F
Wonders where all the people go When the light goes down
C F
Answers all your questions With a gesture
C F
Don’t care where he’s goin to
[Horn Instrumental]
C F x3
Cm G
In a diamond in the rain
G# A# Gm D
While you’re waiting for your change
[Verse 3]
C F
I’m sat in a corner I’m merged with the wall
C F
Become part of the painting No point fighting it all
C F C F
I’m quite relaxed It’s frightning me.
