Capo 1st Fret
[D]Goodnight, goodnight, [Bm]the sun is long out of sight
[G]And I stagger home by [A]the streetlight
Goodnight, goodnight, went out after work tonight
Only meant to stay for a swift pint
And I'm giving you a call though I'm in no fit state
And I know it's far too late
And I'm hardly thinking straight
'Cos I've missed you ever since you moved away from here
And it's not the same this year

Goodnight, goodnight soulmate, oh but if you were here tonight
We could climb up through the skylight
Remember lying in your attic on those summer nights

Those were the best days of my whole life
And now I know you're moving on and I've been trying too
Trying not to speak to you
But I still can't sleep here without you to wish me a ..
CHORUS
And I've got my [Bm]friends but I can't [G]really talk to them
D Bm G A x4
Like I can talk to you
Remember how we used to stay up very very late and smoke
And listen did I say how much I miss you now?
I'm keeping you from sleeping now
I only called to wish you could be here tonight
To hold me while I'm wishing you a ..
Goodnight soulmate, I know I'm in no state
To call you up and keep you up so late
