G Am7 Dm7
[Chorus]
Fsus2 Cmaj7/E Dm7
Hey, Ire - - - e - - - - ene
G Am7 Dm7
Remember that club where you used to sing?
Fsus2 Cmaj7/E
Red lampshades in the booths
Dm7
Men whispering untruths
G Am7 Dm7
Well, they tore it down in the spring
[Verse 1]
G Am7 G
And I still remember your voice
G Am7 Dm7
I see the band playing up there on the stand
G Am7 G
And all the smoke in the light
G Am7 Dm7
The music loud and the faces in the crowd
[Chorus]
Fsus2 Cmaj7/E Dm7
Was it a drea - - ea - - - eam?
G Am7 Dm7
I heard that you moved out of range
Fsus2 Cmaj7/E
Was it something you'd outgrown?
Dm7
Needed something of your own?
G Am7 Dm7
I guess, well, everyone's entitled to a change
[Verse 2]
G Am7 G
The crowd has grown older too
G Am7 Dm7
But some of them, they still want a piece of you
G Am7 G
They yearn for some golden age
G Am7 Dm7
The time that they first heard you from the stage
[Bridge]
Cmaj7/E
New Year's Day
Am7 Fsus2
The snow was so thick but everybody came
Cmaj7/E
For the songs that you sang
G
The whole glittering shebang
Fsus2 G7
Oh, I see it all when I hear your name
[Instrumental]
Fsus2 Cmaj7/E Dm7
G Am7 Dm7
[Verse 3]
G Am7 G
Last night I walked there again
G Am7 Dm7
The neon city always ageless and unsung
G Am7 G
The bars spilled onto the street
G Am7 Dm7
The music loud, different faces in the crowd
[Chorus]
Fsus2 Cmaj7/E Dm7
Hey, Ire - - - e - - - - ene
G Am7 Dm7
Where have we been?
Fsus2 Cmaj7/E Dm7
Hey, Ire - - - e - - - - ene
G Am7 Dm7
You were a queen
Fsus2 Cmaj7/E Dm7
Hey, Ire - - - e - - - - ene
G Am7 Dm7
Where have we been?
