G# Oh the lights outside they're as bright as the sun C# They're much brighter than anyone G# Oh the girls in the queue yes they're waiting for you C# Well they're waiting for their song to be sung A#m C# And when the night turns to day and all the people go away G# D# It's not the same, tell me who's to blame? A#m C# And when the stars shine so bright on the cold December night G# D# I wish that I was on the stage Chorus: A#m Oh won't you take a ride with me D# Through the Barrowland history G# C# And I'll sing you a song or two A#m D# People they may stop and stare but baby I just don't care G# C# It's only me and you A#m And the drink and dance and drugs you know D# It's all part of the show we go to G# C# Maybe I should tell you A#m D# That people they may stop and stare but baby I just don't care C# D# G# Tonight, it's only me and you And the drink and dance and drugs you know It's all part of the show we go to, maybe I should tell you That people, they may stop and stare But baby I just don't care, tonight, if it's only me and you Oh, nothing beats the feeling of the high Barrowland ceiling When the band start to play Won't you buy me a drink, and I'll tell her what I think If she gets in my way And when the night turns to day And all the people go away It's not the same, tell me who's to blame?
