Bernadette

	  		
Verse 1:
 
                    F# 
It was a quarter to four AM 
            G#m 
Alone in my kitchenette 
                   B          Bm 
That's where I met Bernadette 
                        F# 
And I still can see her now 

                        F# 
First she kicked on the wash machine 
                   G#m 
Streaked 'cross my tv screen 
            B 
Rustled the magazines 
    Bm             F# 
And blew my candle out
 


                  B                 D#7 
But how many days passed since then? 
                D#m        D# 
Since I saw her silhouette 
               B 
Now I want her back again 
Bm          F# 
Oh, my Bernadette 


Verse 2:
                        F# 
It was the strangest of summer dreams 
                       G#m 
Those nights she spent haunting me 
                      B 
She touched me 'cross centuries 
      Bm         F# 
And I never felt alone 

                  F# 
But one morning I knew she'd gone 
                    G#m 
Left the lights and Victrola on 
                  B 
And I woke to the saddest song 
  Bm             F# 
A tune from long ago 

 
                    B             D#7 
Now it feels like I lost a friend 
                  D#m        D# 
And I find myself wondering 
                  B 
Will she haunt my home again? 
Bm          F# 
Oh, my Bernadette 



Outro 
                  B         D#7 
Each night when I go to bed 
                   D#m       D# 
I leave one candle flickering 
                  B 
She finds her way back again 
Bm          F# 
Oh, my Bernadette
