40 Past Midnight with Ocean Colour Scene This how I think 40 Past Midnight is played. I think it sounds quite right. Chords: x02220 x24442 xx0232 G 320011 (or 320001) When I'm waiting standing on the corner And it's coming 40 past the hour In the midnight lonely freezing hour With my insides churning in the gutter And I'm waiting 40 past midnight Catching rain in the soda light Won't you come and call me to your window Please don't leave me waiting on the corner We could have the best times if you lighten up your life With my pockets holey on the inside With my busride rolling in the gutter But if you'd only light your lamp light Then I'd be here than any other Well I'm waiting 40 past midnight Catching cold in the pouring rain Won't you come and take me to your door step So I can take myself home again We could have the best times if you lighten up your life When I'm waiting standing on the corner And the soda light begins to flicker And it's getting 40 past the hour And I think I won't see what I figure Well I'm waiting freezing on the inside Staring up at your window pane If you won't come see me this evening I can see myself here again We could have the best times if you lighten up your life -
