[Chorus]
Asus2 Emaj7/G# F#m7
Hey, Ire - - - e - - - - ene
B C#m7 F#m7
Remember that club where you used to sing?
Asus2 Emaj7/G#
Red lampshades in the booths
F#m7
Men whispering untruths
B C#m7 F#m7
Well, they tore it down in the spring
[Verse 1]
B C#m7 B
And I still remember your voice
B C#m7 F#m7
I see the band playing up there on the stand
B C#m7 B
And all the smoke in the light
B C#m7 F#m7
The music loud and the faces in the crowd
[Chorus]
Asus2 Emaj7/G# F#m7
Was it a drea - - ea - - - eam?
B C#m7 F#m7
I heard that you moved out of range
Asus2 Emaj7/G#
Was it something you'd outgrown?
F#m7
Needed something of your own?
B C#m7 F#m7
I guess, well, everyone's entitled to a change
[Verse 2]
B C#m7 B
The crowd has grown older too
B C#m7 F#m7
But some of them, they still want a piece of you
B C#m7 B
They yearn for some golden age
B C#m7 F#m7
The time that they first heard you from the stage
[Bridge]
Emaj7/G#
New Year's Day
C#m7 Asus2
The snow was so thick but everybody came
Emaj7/G#
For the songs that you sang
B
The whole glittering shebang
Asus2 B7
Oh, I see it all when I hear your name
[Instrumental]
Asus2 Emaj7/G# F#m7
B C#m7 F#m7
[Verse 3]
B C#m7 B
Last night I walked there again
B C#m7 F#m7
The neon city always ageless and unsung
B C#m7 B
The bars spilled onto the street
B C#m7 F#m7
The music loud, different faces in the crowd
[Chorus]
Asus2 Emaj7/G# F#m7
Hey, Ire - - - e - - - - ene
B C#m7 F#m7
Where have we been?
Asus2 Emaj7/G# F#m7
Hey, Ire - - - e - - - - ene
B C#m7 F#m7
You were a queen
Asus2 Emaj7/G# F#m7
Hey, Ire - - - e - - - - ene
B C#m7 F#m7
Where have we been?
