[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

[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

[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
