London By Night
Written by Carrol Coates
Performed by Greg Laswell (and more notably Frank Sinatra)
This is my first tab, really love this song and there weren t chords for it online
so I figured them out as best as I could. The picking and strumming pattern that
Laswell does on this song is excellent so be sure to listen to it first. Please
tell if there s something you think could be changed to sound more like Laswell s
cover of the song.
London by night is a wonderful sight
There is magic abroad in the air
I m often told that the streets turn into gold
When the moon shines on Circus and Square
Deep in the dark that envelops the park
There s romance in each cigarette glow
Down by the Thames, lights that sparkle like gems
Seem to wink at each girl and her beau
Up comes the moon when the city s asleep
He s not alone, for it seems
Somewhere up there stands an angel to keep
Her watch while each Londoner dreams
My love and I saw the sun leave the sky
Then we kissed in the fast-fading light
Most people say they love London by day
But lovers love London by night
But lovers love London by night
