[Intro]
G | G | C | C
 
 
[Verse 1]
    G                            G                C        C
I know that it is freezing but i think we have to walk 
     G                    G                             C     C
keep waving at the taxis they keep turning their lights off 
     Am                   Am                      D      D
but julie knows a party at some actor's west-side loft
             Am             C              Am      D         G
supplies are endless in the evening by the morning they'll be gone
 
 
[Verse 2]
     G                   G                      C     C
When everything is lonely i can be my own best friend
         G                   G                    C     C
I get a coffee and the paper have my own conversations
         Am                       Am                   D     D
with the sidewalk and the pigeons and my window reflection
           Am            C              Am          D        G
the mask i polish in the evening by the morning looks like shit
 
 
[Chorus 1]
       C             C                   G               G
And I know you have a heavy heart, I can feel it when we kiss 
     C             C                           G                   A7
So many men stronger than me have thrown their backs out trying to lift it
C                 Em              Am     G      C
But me i'm not a gamble you can count on me to split 
            Am             C              Am      D     G
The love I sell you in the evening by the morning won't exist
 
 
[Verse 2]
                G                 G                           C       C
You're looking skinny like a model with your eyes all painted black
           G                     G                         C       C
Just keep going to the bathroom always say you'll be right back
      Am                     Am                         D      D
Well it takes one to know one kid i think you've got it bad
             Am          C              Am        D      G
But whats so easy in the evening by the morning's such a drag
 
 
[Verse 3]
           G                     G                       C      C
I've got a flask inside my pocket we can share it on the train
           G                        G                      C      C
And if you promise to stay conscious i will try and do the same
            Am                   Am                          D     D
Yeah we might die from medication but we sure killed all the pain
             Am            C              Am      D       G
But what was normal in the evening by the morning seems insane
 
 
[Chorus 2]
        C                 C                G             G
And i'm not sure what the trouble was that started all of this 
    C               C                 G             A7
The reasons all have run away but the feeling never did...  it's
    C                Em                Am     G       C
not something i would recommend but it is one way to live
              Am            C                Am          D   G
Cause what is simple in the moonlight by the morning never is 
            Am            C                 Am      D     Em
Yeah it was simple in the moonlight now it's so complicated 
          Am            C             Am            C             Am            C              G
It was so simple in the moonlight, so simple in the moonlight, so simple in the moonlight.

I transposed the chords down down 5 half steps. No need for a capo. Putting a capo on the 7th fret of a ukulele is not going to sound great. The chords are perfect. Nice job!
