[Chorus]
Dsus2 Amaj7/C# Bm7
Hey, Ire - - - e - - - - ene
E F#m7 Bm7
Remember that club where you used to sing?
Dsus2 Amaj7/C#
Red lampshades in the booths
Bm7
Men whispering untruths
E F#m7 Bm7
Well, they tore it down in the spring
[Verse 1]
E F#m7 E
And I still remember your voice
E F#m7 Bm7
I see the band playing up there on the stand
E F#m7 E
And all the smoke in the light
E F#m7 Bm7
The music loud and the faces in the crowd
[Chorus]
Dsus2 Amaj7/C# Bm7
Was it a drea - - ea - - - eam?
E F#m7 Bm7
I heard that you moved out of range
Dsus2 Amaj7/C#
Was it something you'd outgrown?
Bm7
Needed something of your own?
E F#m7 Bm7
I guess, well, everyone's entitled to a change
[Verse 2]
E F#m7 E
The crowd has grown older too
E F#m7 Bm7
But some of them, they still want a piece of you
E F#m7 E
They yearn for some golden age
E F#m7 Bm7
The time that they first heard you from the stage
[Bridge]
Amaj7/C#
New Year's Day
F#m7 Dsus2
The snow was so thick but everybody came
Amaj7/C#
For the songs that you sang
E
The whole glittering shebang
Dsus2 E7
Oh, I see it all when I hear your name
[Instrumental]
Dsus2 Amaj7/C# Bm7
E F#m7 Bm7
[Verse 3]
E F#m7 E
Last night I walked there again
E F#m7 Bm7
The neon city always ageless and unsung
E F#m7 E
The bars spilled onto the street
E F#m7 Bm7
The music loud, different faces in the crowd
[Chorus]
Dsus2 Amaj7/C# Bm7
Hey, Ire - - - e - - - - ene
E F#m7 Bm7
Where have we been?
Dsus2 Amaj7/C# Bm7
Hey, Ire - - - e - - - - ene
E F#m7 Bm7
You were a queen
Dsus2 Amaj7/C# Bm7
Hey, Ire - - - e - - - - ene
E F#m7 Bm7
Where have we been?
