G                         C
Up all night I could not sleep
     G                        C
The whiskey that I drank was cheap
      G                          C              G/B    D
With shakin' hands I went and I lit up my last cigarette
          G                   C
Well the sun came, night had fled
      G                       C
And sleepy eyed I reached my bed
   G                       C                     G       C    G
I saw you sleepy dreamin' there all covered and warm

C                   Bm  G
South city midnight la-dy
     Bb             Am7
I'm much obliged indeed
     C                   G/B       Am7          G   C   G
You sure have saved this man whose soul was in need
    C                  Bm  G
I thought there was no reason
    Bb                 Am7
For all these things I do
          C               Bm7     Am7         G
But the smile that I sent out returned with you 

      G                       C
When day has left the night behind
      G                     C
And shadows roll across my mind
   G                C              G            D
I sometimes find myself alone out walkin' the street
          G                         C
Yes, and when I'm feelin' down and blue
      G                    C
Then all I do is think of you
     G                       C             G    C    G
And all my foolish problems seem to fade away

Cmaj7       C       Bm
South city midnight lady
    Bb             Am7
I'm much obliged indeed
     C                   G/B       Am7           G     C    G
You sure have saved this man whose soul was in need
    C                   Bm
I thought there was no reason
G        Bb            Am7
For all these things I do
         C               G/B      Am7        G
But the smile that I sent out returned with you
