If you *don't* know it- its a moody/defiant sounding vocal over a solo
piano. Its 4/4 timing at 80bpm. The verses/bridge are in C minor and the
chorus in C major, which sounds great :>)

The piano part's got loads of twiddly arpeggiated scales and stuff in it,
which sounds a bit too much like like hard work to tab out. It translates
pretty well into to a strummed guitar arrangement though. Here's the
chords, the melody for the vocal and some suggestions for strumming
patterns........



Chords/lyrics.........


[intro]:

| Cm  Bb | Cm  Bb  |

[verse]:

Cm(III) Bb   Cm(III)   Bb     Ab          Bb       Cm(III)
I can   hear somebody walking down this midnight street

Cm(III)     Bb       Cm(III)    Bb Ab                Bb     Cm(III)
So you came back to say goodbye   thinking it would make it complete

Bb                Cm(III)    Bb                   Cm(III)
If you lost your love for me that's all I need to know

   Fm                            Ab        Bb
So turn around and go but don't listen too close


[chorus]:

   %C(VIII)   G(III) Am*                 C(0)      G(0)$        Am
For you will see no tears from these eyes as I go back to the start

C(0)     G(0)       Am*            Dm                 G(0)
I've got everything under control  everything but my heart

C(0) G(0)   Am*            C(0)            G(0)$   Am
I refuse to let you believe this is gonna tear me apart

    C(0)    G(0)     Am*         %Cm(III) Bb         Cm(VIII)
But as you turn and walk away "so long" whispers my heart


[verse2]:

Cm(III) Bb  Cm(III) Bb     Ab          Bb            Cm(III)
I have lived long enough to know the pleasure and the pain

Cm(III)      Bb     Cm(III)     Bb     Ab               Bb     Cm(III)
It's nothing new to find myself aching standing in the pouring rain

Bb                    Cm(III)     Bb                        Cm(III)
I don't care if it's somebody else I don't wanna hear those lines

          Fm                  Ab             Bb        %
Your love seems to be fine so I'll take back mine

[chorus]

[bridge]:

db/Eb               Ab
   It seems so easy for you to forget

 Gm                     Ab           Bb
our long secret nights    I haven't yet

Eb                       Ab
 but you would believe I am surviving too

      Gm                        Ab            Bb        %C(VIII)..
it's something I must do  I'll never let you feel what's true

Arrangement..........

the feel is kinda quiet and moody in the early part of the verse,
building up to confident & defiant later on in the verse and in the
chorus (think of Cher getting angsty and expressive.......no?, ok,
whatever). (My) arrangement is for strummed guitar. Here's a suggestion
for how much and when......


the early part of the verses, you can *almost* get by with just a single
strum on each chord change, but here's just a bit more.....


   Cm      Bb       Cm      Bb       Ab      Bb       Cm

   I      hear    somebody              down midnight street

[strum gently and let everything ring, except in the third bar which
kinda chugs]


[...then build it up {louder and faster strumming} til you get to the
chorus {which still isn't *real* loud, maybe two-thirds of the loudest
you could ever strum}. Here's the third line of the chorus....

   C       G        Am*              C       G$        Am

  you will see    tears ft eyes         as  back     start




note the "Am-Am7-Am-Am5" thing in the chorus [marked by a "*" in this
tab]- the guitar follows the melody of the vocal, like this......

"db/Eb" (at the beginning of the bridge) means pick the A string at the
4th fret, then slide that up and strum the Eb at the 6th fret

"%" is a keychange (C major to C minor or vice versa)
