Intro G  G/F#  Em   
        G7  C  F2 


G               G/F# 
  Smiles in the morning at me 
Em                  G7 
   Apartment on the second story 
C                Am/F 
  Strangers in a brand new city 
G              G/F# 
  Both remembering last night 
Em                     G7 
   Kitchen table and a bottle of wine 
C                   F2     Em      G7 
  The only thing on my mind is you 


C 
  The way the moonlight flickered in, we were 
Cmaj7 
    Stars of some old classic film 


     G           D 
With Miss Simone,  singing 
Am                  C 
  "Pour some sugar in my bowl, baby" 
G                    D 
  In the glow of the candlelight 
    Am              C 
We danced all night 
G                D 
  On the rooftop,  thinking 
Am               C 
No one needs to know a thing 
    Em          G7 
But Miss Simone 
           C           Cmaj7 
No one but Miss Simone 



G            G/F# 
  Moving boxes cover the floor 
Em                    G7 
   I never quite been here before 
C                Am/F 
  Finally made a house feel like home 
G                  G/F# 
  The years are flying past us now 
Em                    G7 
   But you and I have figured out how 
C                 F2     Em       G7 
  To conjure up a feeling so true 



C 
  Close the door and set the day down 
Cmaj7 
    Settle in, and we'll throw on some 



     G           D 
With Miss Simone,  singing 
Am                  C 
  "Pour some sugar in my bowl, baby" 
G                    D 
  In the glow of the candlelight 
        Am             C 
We can dance all night 
G                D 
  On the rooftop,  thinking 
Am               C 
No one needs to know a thing 
    Em          G7 
But Miss Simone 
           C           Cmaj7 
No one but Miss Simone 



Em 
How'd she know 
     G7 
What a heart sounds like 
       A7 
In the glow of this candle 
     Am              D/F# 
On a rooftop in the moonlight? 



G              G/F# 
  Someday when we're old and gray 
Em                 G7 
   Sifting through our yesterdays 
      C 
We'll pull that memory from its sleeve 
    Cmaj7 
And play that song of you and me 

 

     G           D 
With Miss Simone,  singing 
Am                  C 
  "Pour some sugar in my bowl, baby" 
G                    D 
  In the glow of the candlelight 
         Am             C 
We will dance all night 
G                D 
  On the rooftop,  thinking 
Am              C 
No one needs to know a thing 
    Em          G7 
But Miss Simone 
       C               Cmaj7 
No one but Miss Simone
