***VERS 1***
Well the r[G]umor’s gone to sleep
And the sky it weeps [Em]- softly almost unnoticed
And the [G]old dog on the stairs
Of a closed down hotel [Em]- is probably waiting for summer[Em7/D]
And [C]all I can hear is the s[D]ound of the train
[G]South[Am]bound  [G/H]I    [C]guess[G/H]
And[Am] up along the river [G/H]    the [C]factories
They breathe [D]heavily into the night



***VERS 2***
And the [G]harbor lights
They look dim tonight - [Em]yellow sort of unreal
And the [G]black dirty water
Under the bridge - that [Em]looks just like the way that I feel[Em7/D]
And a [C]lonely cruising taxi is [D]coming from the north
His [G]headlights are [Am]searching [G/H]for  ro[C]mance
[G/H]And I [Am]wonder to myself[G/H]
[C]If I’m ever gonna do [D]anything right



***REFRENG***
‘Cause [G]April nights are for [D]April [Em]fools[Em7/D]
And I’m [C]freezing ton[Em/H]ight in this  [Am]Apr[G/H]il  [C]coo[D]l
[G]April Skies are for [D]April [Em]stars[Em7/D]
And I [C]miss you ton[Em/H]ight but you [Am]are [G/H]so  [C]far[D] away



***MELLOMSPILL***
[G] [Em]



***VERS 3***
The [G]mocking birds they are silent tonight
Not k[Em]nowing which way the wind will blow
And the [G]mist and the fog
The underdog is [Em]letting his feeling show[Em7/D]
He [C]wonders if he’s ever gonna go[D]
[G]South of this [Am]prom[G/H]ised [C]land[G/H]
To [Am]find some people[G/H]
[C]Real people that [D]might just understand



***REFRENG***
‘Cause [G]April nights are for [D]April [Em]fools[Em7/D]
And I’m [C]freezing ton[Em/H]ight in this  [Am]Apr[G/H]il  [C]coo[D]l
[G]April Skies are for [D]April [Em]stars[Em7/D]
And I [C]miss you ton[Em/H]ight but you [Am]are [G/H]so  [C]far[D] away

***VERS 4***
When your [G]life’s lost its course
And you can’t find the torch - that [Em]always got you back on the feet
In your [G]mouth there’s a taste
Of the yesterdays wine -[Em] that got you back on to the street
But you [C]did it all yourself - there’s [D]no one to blame
You’ll [G]never be the [Am]keeper [G/H]of the [C]flame
[G/H]You just [Am]held it for a while - [G/H]tried to d[C]o it with style
While [D]singing on the last refrain



***REFRENG***
‘Cause [G]April nights are for [D]April [Em]fools[Em7/D]
And I’m [C]freezing ton[Em/H]ight in this  [Am]Apr[G/H]il  [C]coo[D]l
[G]April Skies are for [D]April [Em]stars[Em7/D]
And I [C]miss you ton[Em/H]ight but you [Am]are [G/H]so  [C]far[D] away

***VERS 5***
When the r[G]umor’s gone to sleep
And the sky it weeps -[Em] softly almost unnoticed
And the [G]old dog on the stairs
Of a closed down hotel [Em]- is probably waiting for summer
