Northern Soul

	  		
verse 1 
Fm 
Midnight, moonlight 
Fm 
The wind blows off Saint Clair 
Fm 
I'm stuck at a red light, waiting 
Fm 
At 6 Mile & Delaware 
Fm 
The sound of a distant Firebird 
Fm 
The echo of a rhyme - Smokey's words 
Fm 
And absence, sweet absence 
Fm 
Fills the freezing air 

verse 2 
          Fm 
I've been wayside for years now 
    Eb 
But no one seems to care 
                  Bb 
Their eyes on the distant horizon 
  Db 
I drove them out of here 
  Fm 
I gave you the American dream 
         Eb 
And the music for your movie scene 
        Bb 
But you left me, bleeding 
   Db 
So listen to my prayer
