         E                                   F#m
All the late night bargains have been struck
             B        C#m          B    C#m
Between the satin beaus and their belles
F#m
Prehistoric garbage trucks
          D9
Have the city to themselves

Echoes and roars of dinosaurs
They're all doing the monster mash
And most of the taxis and most of the whores
Are only taking calls for cash, mmm

Chorus:
A                    B        B 
I don't know how it happened
    E                 A
It all took place so quick
     E           E   A
But all I can do
    B         C#m  B  
Is hand it to you
And your latest trick

Well now, my door was standing open
Security was laid back and lax
But it was only my heart got-a broken
You must have had a pass key made out of wax

You played robbery with insolence
And I played the blues in twelve bars down on Lovers' Lane
And you never did have the intelligence to use
The twelve keys hanging off of my chain

Chorus

Well, now it's past last call for alcohol
Past recall has been here and gone
The landlord, he finally paid us all
The satin jazzmen have put away their horns

And we're standing outside of this wonderland
Looking so bereaved and so bereft
Like a Bowery bum when he finally understands
The bottle's empty and there's nothing left, mmm
