  			C                                     F 
She lives her life in honky tonks and crowded backstreet bars 

    G7                                  C              G7 
The world of make believe that knows no sun or moon or stars 

     C                                      F 
Just a glitter of a great white way and the glare of city lights 

      G7                                            C 
Where music's loud she's in the crowd a girl in the night 


  F                           C 
I wonder if she's thinking of dreams that didn't last 

  D7                         G7 
I wonder if she's haunted by heartaches from the past 

C                             F 
Perhaps there is a story of a love that wasn't right 

    G7                                         C 
Now shadows hide her empty pride a girl in the night 


                                 F 
She's sitting there so lonely as she lights a cigarette 

    G7                                     C             G7 
The smoke rings rise and in her eyes there seems to be regret 

       C                             F 
Is she there to tempt the lover in a dress that hugs her tight 

  G7                                           C 
A glass of wine to pass the time a girl in the nigh 
t 

  F                           C 
I wonder if she's thinking of dreams that didn't last 

  D7                         G7 
I wonder if she's haunted by heartaches from the past 

C                             F 
Perhaps there is a story of a love that wasn't right 

    G7                                         C 
Now shadows hide her empty pride a girl in the night 

  
    G7                                          C 
Now shadows hide her empty pride  a girl in the night
