Capo: 1st fret

[Intro]
Dm  Dm  Bb  Gm  
 
[Verse 1]
Dm     Bb                         Gm
Lemon, see-through in the sunlight
          Dm    Bb                   Gm
She wore lemon, never in the daylight
                     Dm
She's gonna make you cry
                      Bb             Gm
She's gonna make you whisper and moan
            Dm                  Bb           Gm
When you're dry she draws water from a stone
 
[Pre-Chorus 1]
C               Gm              Bb
I feel like I'm slowly, slowly, slowly slippin' under
C               Gm            Bb
I feel like I'm holding on to nothing
 
[Verse 2]
         Dm
She wore lemon
   Bb                      Gm
To colour in the cold grey night
        Dm
She had heaven
                Bb       Gm
And she held on so tight
 
[Verse 3]
Dm
A man makes a picture
Bb          Gm
A moving picture
Dm
Through the light projected
           Bb             Gm
He can see himself up close
Dm
A man captures colour
Bb                  Gm
A man likes to stare
Dm
He turns his money into light
        Bb      Gm
To look for her
 
[Pre-Chorus 2]
C                   Gm                  Bb
And I feel like I'm drifting, drifting, drifting from the shore
C                   Gm              Bb
And I feel like I'm swimming out to her
 
[Chorus]
F  C  Bb
Ohhhhhh
F       C             Bb
Midnight is where the day begins
F       C
Midnight is where the day begins
F       C             Dm    Bb  Gm
Midnight is where the day
Dm     Bb                         Gm
Lemon, see-through in the sunlight
 
[Verse 3]
Dm
A man builds a city
Bb                   Gm
With banks and cathedrals
Dm
A man melts the sand
              Bb               Gm
So he can see the world outside  (You're gonna meet her there)
Dm
A man makes a car (She's your destination)
Bb                       Gm
And builds a road to run them on (You gotta get to her)
Dm
A man dreams of leaving (She's imagination)
         Bb            Gm
But he always stays behind
 
[Pre-Chorus 3]
C                                Gm            Bb
And these are the days when our work has come asunder
C                               Gm                  Bb
And these are the days when we look for something other
 
[Chorus]
F       C             Bb
Midnight is where the day begins
F       C             Bb
Midnight is where the day begins
F       C             Bb
Midnight is where the day begins
F       C             Dm         Bb  Gm
Midnight is where the day begins

F       C             Bb
Midnight is where the day begins
F       C             Bb
Midnight is where the day begins
F       C             Bb
Midnight is where the day begins
F       C             Dm         Bb  Gm
Midnight is where the day begins

[Verse 3]
Dm
A man makes a picture
Bb          Gm
A moving picture
Dm
Through the light projected
           Bb             Gm
He can see himself up close (You're gonna meet her there)
Dm
A man captures colour (She's your destination)
Bb                  Gm
A man likes to stare (There's no sleeping there)
Dm
He turns his money into light (She's your imagination)
        Bb      Gm
To look for her
 
[Outro]
Dm
She is the dreamer (Lemon)
Bb            Gm
She's imagination (She had heaven)
Dm
Through the light projected
           Bb              Gm
He can see himself up close (She wore lemon)
              Lemon
See-through in the sunlight
She wore lemon
But never in the daylight

She's gonna make you cry
She's gonna make you whisper and moan
And when you're dry
She draws water from the stone

I feel like I'm slowly, slowly, slowly slippin' under
And I feel like I'm holding on to nothing

She wore lemon
To colour in the cold grey night
She had Heaven
And she held on, so tight

A man makes a picture, a moving picture
Through the light projected he can see himself up close
A man captures colour, a man likes to stare
He turns his money into light to look for her

And I feel like I'm drifting, drifting, drifting from the shore
And I feel like I'm swimming out to her
Ah-ah, hoo-ooh

Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins

Lemon
See-through in the sunlight

A man builds a city with banks and cathedrals
A man melts the sand so he can see the world outside (you're gonna meet her there)
A man makes a car (she's your destination) and builds a road to run them on (gotta get to her)
A man dreams of leaving (she's imagination) but he always stays behind

And these are the days when our work has come asunder
And these are the days when we look for something other

Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins

Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins

A man makes a picture, a moving picture
Through the light projected he can see himself up close
A man captures colour, a man likes to stare
He turns his money into light to look for her

Through the light projected, he can see himself up close
(She wore lemon)
