[Verse]     
[Dm] (stop) Half past twelve ........ And I'm  
[Gm] (drums in) watching the late show in my flat all alone
How I hate to spend the evening on my [Dm] own

[Dm] (stop) Autumn winds ... Blowing 
[Gm] (drums in) outside the window as I look around the room
And it makes me so depressed to see the [Dm] gloom
[Bb] There's not a soul out there (High E - 0 1 3 1 0 - Snare between first 0 and 1) 
[Gm] No one to hear my prayer [Dm/A] [A] 

[Chorus]  
[Dm] Gimme gimme [Bb] gimme a [C] man after [Dm] midnight
[Bb] Won't somebody [Dm] help me chase these [C] shadows [Dm] away
[Dm] Gimme gimme [Bb] gimme a [C] man after [Dm] midnight
[Bb] Take me through the [Dm] darkness to the [C] break of the [Dm] day

[Interlude] 
[Dm] [F] [Am] [Dm] x2 

[Verse]   
[Dm] Movie stars .... Find the 
[Gm] end of the rainbow, with that fortune to win
It's so different from the world I'm living [Dm] in

[Dm] Tired of T.V. ..... I open the 
[Gm] window and I gaze into the night
But there's nothing there to see, no one in [Dm] sight
[Bb] There's not a soul out there (E 0 1 3 1 0)
[Gm] No one to hear my prayer [Dm/A] [A] 

[Chorus]  
[Dm] Gimme gimme [Bb] gimme a [C] man after [Dm] midnight...
[Bb] Ah [Dm] ah [C] ah [Dm] ah
[Dm] Gimme gimme [Bb] gimme a [C] man after [Dm] midnight...
[Bb] Ah [Dm] ah [C] ah [Dm] ah
[Dm] Gimme gimme [Bb] gimme a [C] man after [Dm] midnight...
[Bb] Ah [Dm] ah [C] ah [Dm] ah
[Dm] Gimme gimme [Bb] gimme a [C] man after [Dm] midnight...
[Bb] Ah [Dm] ah [C] ah [Dm] ah

[Dm] Gimme gimme [Bb] gimme a [C] man after [Dm] midnight
