D5 F
Wide awake in the middle of the night

G D5
I wonder how she's feelin'

F C
Is it just a trick of the light

G D5
Or is her ceiling peeling?

F F
She's sitting up in bed, shakin' her head

G D5
At a copy of "True Confessions"

F C
Ooh, it must seem like a fairy tale

G D5
To a woman of her profession

[chorus]

F->G F->G
But was I all right? (was I all right?)

C F
Did I take you to the height of ecstasy?

F->G F->G
Was I all right? (was I all right?)

C F
Did a shadow of emotion cross your face

D5
Or was it just another trick of the light?

[Bass solo: over verse chords]

[chorus]
But was I all right? (was I all right?)
Did I take you to the height of ecstasy?
Was I all right? (was I all right?)
Did a shadow of emotion cross your face
Or was it just another trick of the light?

Come on, tell me

F C Dm
What's a nice girl like you doin' in a place like this?

Bb F C
They don't make girls like you no more

Dm Bb
And I'd like to get to know you

G Bb
On closer terms than this

G C
But I guess you've heard it all before

[opening riff]

D F
Lady of the night

G D
Won't you steal away with me?

F C
Lady of the night

G D
Won't you steal away with me?

F F
The money's lyin' on the floor, she looks at me

G D
Shakes her head and sighs

F
Out of time, out the door

C G D
Red light shinin' in my eyes

But was I all right? (was I all right?)
Did I take you to the height of ecstasy?
Was I all right? (was I all right?)
Did a shadow of emotion cross your face
All right?

But was I all right?
All right?
