[Verse 1]
Em7 It's Am7four in the morning, the Fend of December
Dm I'm writing you now just to Em7see if you're better
Am7New York is cold, but IF like where I'm living
There'sDm music on Clinton Street aEm7ll through the evening
Am7 I hear that you're Bm7building
Your little Am7house deep in the Bm7desert
Am7 You're living for Gnothing now
I hope you're Am7keeping some kind of Grecord

That night that you planned to go Bm7clear
G F Did you ever go Em7clear?
[Verse 2]
Oh, the laAm7st time we saw you you Flooked so much older
YouDmr famous blue raincoat was Em7torn at the shoulder
You'd Am7been to the station to Fmeet every train
ThenDm you came home without Em7Lili Marlene
And you Am7treated my Bm7woman
To a Am7flake of your Bm7life
Am7 And when she came Gback
Am7 She was nobody's Gwife

Well I see Jane's aBm7wake
G F She sends her regaEm7rd

That night that you planned to go Bm7clear
G F Sincerely, L. Em7Cohen
