[Intro]

D G D D

[Verse 1]

D G

New York City where it's cold as hell

Em F#m G A D

And the streetlights shown in my blue room

D G

I was thinking about the nights we spent

Em F#m G A D

Back in Galveston beneath the Georgia moon

[Verse 2]

D G

It was early and I'd had my share

Em F#m G A D

I was countin' change for a cab ride back to bed

D G

She looked to me through the cold night air

Em F#m G A D

And thoughts of you kicked off inside my head

[Chorus]

G D

Well she was tall hair dark as midnight

A D

She had a way just like you do

G D Bm

To make me feel just like a woman should

You can't call it cheatin'

A G

Cause she reminds me of you

[Verse 3 - quiet]

D G

Though I loved you and the trust we shared

Em F#m G A D

Lord don't tell me that I've thrown it all away

D G

A moments weakness shouldn't change the fact

Em F#m G A D

That I need you and there's nothing more to say

[Chorus - louder]

G D

Lord she was tall hair dark as midnight

A D

She had a way just like you do

G D Bm

To make me feel just like a woman should

You can't call it cheatin'

A G

Cause she reminds me of you

You can't call it cheatin'

A G

Cause she reminds me of...

[Outro]

Em F#m G A D
