GIMME GIMME GIMME (A MAN AFTER MIDNIGHT) by Abba

intro

Dm Gm C9 Dm

Dm Gm C9 Dm

G

Half past twelve and I’m watching the late show

in my flat all alone.

Dm

How I hate to spend the evening on my own.

G

Autumn winds blowin’ outside my window

as I look around the room

Dm

and it makes me so depressed to see the gloom.

Bb

There’s not a soul out there,

Gm6 Dm/A A

no-one to hear my prayer.

Dm Gm/Bb C Dm

Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight,

Gm/Bb Dm C Dm

won’t somebody help me chase the shadows away.

Dm Gm/Bb C Dm

Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight,

Gm/Bb Dm C Dm

take me through the darkness to the break of the day.

-----

Movie stars find the end of the rainbow

with a fortune to win,

it’s so different from the world I’m living in.

Tired of TV I open the window

and I gaze into the night,

but there’s nothing there to see, no-one in sight.

There’s not a soul out there,

no-one to hear my prayer.

Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight,

won’t somebody help me chase the shadows away.

Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight,

take me through the darkness to the break of the day.

Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight,

won’t somebody help me chase the shadows away.

Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight,

take me through the darkness to the break of the day.
