D#               G#  D#
I can see the city written in your face
Freckles spread like constellations
all over the place
           G#
Darling, I walked you to the station
                               D#  G# D#
Shooting with my heart on my sleeve
          A#                           G#
Now I'm staring at your photograph and hoping
                          D#  G#  D#
you ain't made a fool of me

                D#                G#      D#
So if you're struggling to go to sleep tonight
                                     G#     D#
When you're on your own beneath the lonely lights
     A#           G#
Oh, darling, if I ever cross your mind
                   D#  G# D#
Won't you let me know?

Chorus:
         A#
Oh, it's hard
         G#           D# G# D#
Oh, it's hard to be alone
         A#
Oh, it's hard
         G#           D# G# D#
Oh, it's hard to be alone

              A#           D#        G#
Moved to the big city and called it home
             A#              D#    G#
Oh, what a crowded place to live alone
           A#                D#     G#
She was a choir girl when we were young
              G
What have we done?
              G#
What have we done?

    G#  D#
Ooh, ooh
G Cm G#  D#
Ooh, ooh
     G#  D#
Ooh, ooh
G Cm G# D#
Ooh, hey

So if you're struggling to go to sleep tonight
When you're on your own beneath the lonely lights
Oh, darling, if I ever cross your mind
Won't you let me know?
