[Verse 1]
Dm
Half past twelve and I'm watching the late show in my flat all alone
Am
How I hate to spend the evening on my own
Dm
Autumn winds blowing outside my window as I look around the room
Am
And it makes me so depressed to see the gloom
F6 Dm6 Esus4 E
There's not a soul out there, no one to hear my prayer
[Chorus]
Am F G Am
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
F Am G Am
Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away?
Am F G Am
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
F Am G Am
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

[Verse 2]
Dm
Movie stars find the end of the rainbow, with a fortune to win
Am
It's so different from the world I'm living in
Dm
Tired of TV I open the window and I gaze into the night
Am
But there's nothing there to see, no one in sight
F6 Dm6 Esus4 E
There's not a soul out there, no one to hear our prayer
[Chorus]
Am F G Am
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
F Am G Am
Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away?
Am F G Am
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
F Am G Am
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day
Am F G Am F Am G Am
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
Am F G Am F Am G Am
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
