Strophe E All the late night bargains have been struck, F#m B A B C# Between the satin beaus and their belles. F#m And prehistoric garbage trucks D7 Have the city to themselves, E Echoes roars dinosaurs, F# B A B C# They're all doing the monster mash. F#m And most of the taxis and the whores D7 Are only taking calls for cash. 1. Refrain A B I don't know how it happened, E A It all took place so quick, E But all I can do B F#7sus4 B Is hand it to you G#m7 And your latest trick. Instrumental |C#m A|B|B6|Amaj7|F#|B|G#|F#m7 G#| 2. Strophe E My door was standing open. F#m B A B C# Security was laid back and lax. F#m But it was only my heart got broken. D7 You must have had a pass key made out of wax. E You played robbery with insolence, F#m B A B C# And I played the blues in twelve bars down Lover's Lane. F#m And you never did have the inteligence to use D7 The twelve keys hanging off my chain. 2. Refrain A B I don't know how it happened, E A It all took place so quick. E But all I can do B F#7sus4 B Is hand it to you G#m7 And your latest trick. Instrumental |C#m A|B|B6|Amaj7|F#|B|G#|F#m7 G#| 3. Strophe E Now it's past last call for alcohol. F#m B A B C# Past recall has been here and gone. F#m The landlord finally paid us all. D7 The satin jazzmen have put away their horns E And we're standing outside of this wonderland, B A B C# Looking so bereaved and so bereft, F#m Like a Bowery bum when he finally understands, D7 The bottle's empty and there's nothing left. 3. Refrain A B I don't know how it happened, E A It was faster than the eye could flick, E But all I can do B F#7sus4 B Is hand it to you G#m7 And your latest trick.
