I'm not 100 percent sure this is right, but it's a start. I would
certainly accept any help with it to brighten it.

Rainy Night In Soho - as performed by The Pogues
x2
I've been lovi
ng you a long
time
Down all the y
ears, down all
the days
And I've cried
for all your
troubles
Smiled at your
funny little
ways
We watched our
friends grow
up together
And we saw the
m as they fell
Some of them f
ell into Heave
n
Some of them f
ell into Hell
I took a shelter from a shower
And I stepped into your arms
On a rainy night in Soho
The wind was whistling all its charms
I sand you all my sorrows
You told me all your joys
Whatever happened to that old song
To all those little girls and boys
Now the song is nearly over
We may never find out what it means
But there's a light I hold before me
And you're the measure of my dreams
The measure of my dreams
Break:
x2
x2
Sometimes I wake up in the morning
The gingerlady by my bed
Covered in a cloak of silence
I hear you talking in my head
I'm not singing for the future
I'm not dreaming of the past
I'm not talking of the first time
I never think about the last
Now the song is nearly over
We may never find out what it means
Still there's a light I hold before me
And you're the measure of my dreams
The measure of my dreams
