[Verse 1]
Bm
Half past twelve and I'm watching the late show in my flat all alone
F#m
How I hate to spend the evening on my own
Bm
Autumn winds blowing outside my window as I look around the room
F#m
And it makes me so depressed to see the gloom
D6 Bm6 C#sus4 C#
There's not a soul out there, no one to hear my prayer
[Chorus]
F#m D E F#m
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
D F#m E F#m
Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away?
F#m D E F#m
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
D F#m E F#m
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Bm
Movie stars find the end of the rainbow, with a fortune to win
F#m
It's so different from the world I'm living in
Bm
Tired of TV I open the window and I gaze into the night
F#m
But there's nothing there to see, no one in sight
D6 Bm6 C#sus4 C#
There's not a soul out there, no one to hear our prayer
[Chorus]
F#m D E F#m
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
D F#m E F#m
Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away?
F#m D E F#m
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
D F#m E F#m
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day
F#m D E F#m D F#m E F#m
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
F#m D E F#m D F#m E F#m
Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight
