  			C                      F              C 
Look at me walkin' the streets at 3 a.m. 

                         F            C 
And you're sayin' what a crazy fool I am 

                      C7               F 
But the one I love is out tonight with him 

C                F           C 
Somewhere makin' love at 3 a.m. 


                           F                  C 
I need a drink but all the bars are locked up tight 

                         F               C 
A lonely man gets mighty thirsty late at night 

                      C7               F 
I won't ever kiss her sweet sweet lips again 

     C                    F            C 
This old world's an awful place at 3 a.m. 


                             F                    C 
There's the river here's the bridge it's too late now 

                         F           C 
I've got nothing left to live for anyhow 

                        C7               F 
In the news they'll say he couldn't even swim 

    C                    F           C 
And he gave his life for love at 3 a.m. 

                         F           C 
Yes he gave his life for love at 3 a.m.
