Barclay James Harvest - Midnight Drug

      
 
 VERSE 1
 ********
 C#m                   B      
 I get up early in the morning
 C#m                      B  
 It's up and out with the sun
 C#m                    B            
 Spending my day making natural highs
 C#m                                B   
 And in the evening when my work is done
 A                            B    
 I make a phone call from the hotel
 A                      B  
 Speak to my woman each day
 A                       B          
 I tell my lady that I'm missing her
 A                        B   
 And I hope she feels the same
    C#m                         
 At least she knows that I'm not
 
 Sharing out our love
                   B   
 With the midnight drug
 
 C#m B C#m

 VERSE 2
 ********
 C#m                      B      
 You spend your day in an in-joke
 C#m                             B  
 Pouring your life in a glass of ice
 C#m                           B            
 And no one's laughing but the monkey in you
     C#m                  B    
 Paranoia for the highest price
 A                              B    
 You make a phone call from the hotel
 A                         B    
 Spending your life in the night
 A                           B            
 The kind of women who don't come for free
            A                              B    
 But then I guess they know you'll pay the price
             C#m        
 If they can keep you up
 They know you've got what turns them on
              B

 CHORUS
 *******
 B                              
 How many times must we tell you
 E                    
 Just how much we care
 B                            
 You must know how we love you
 E                              
 But we can't even meet half-way
 A                          B       
 Well I've got something to tell you
 A                       B 
 If you can only take it in
 A                          B           
 I think you're worthy of a better cause
            A                    
 If you can just stop looking for
 
 What you never get enough of
              B

 VERSE 3
 ********
 C#m                     B         
 Your kind of sugar is a sweet club
 C#m                B  
 I like my sugar in tea
 C#m                       B     
 You spend your life going faster
               C#m                    B    
 There's no surviving if you crash at speed
 A                            B             
 Now, I'm not saying that I'm wrong or right
 A                              B  
 But that the truth is plain to see
 A                                        B   
 I get my kicks from my friends and their love
          A                           B   
 It's the kind of love that comes for free
 C#m                        
 They're the kind of friends
 
 That you don't find when you go looking for
 
 They only pick you up then let you fall
 
 'Till you come back for more
                 B   
 Of the midnight drug
