Late In The Evening by Paul Simon
Late In The Evening
E A B
[Intro]
E
[Verse 1]
A
The first thing I remember, I was lying in my bed
E
I couldn't've been no more than one or two
A
And I remember there's a radio, coming from the room next door
E
My mother laughed the way some ladies' do
B E
Well it's late in the evening, and the music's seeping through
[Verse 2]
(same as verse 1)
The next thing I remember, I am walking down a street
I'm feeling alright I'm with my boys and with my troops, yeah
Down along the avenue some guys are shootin' pool
And I heard the sound of acapella groups, yeah
Singin' late in the evening, and all the girls out on the stoops, yeah
[Verse 3]
(same as verse 1)
Then I learned to play some lead guitar, I was underage in this funky bar
And I stepped outside to smoke myself a J
When I come back to the room, everybody just seemed to move
And I turned my amp up loud and I began to play
It was late in the evening, and I blew that room away
[Verse 4]
(same as verse 1)
First thing I remember when you came into my life
I said I wanna get that girl, no matter what I do
Well I guess I've been in love before and once or twice have been on the floor
But I've never loved no-one the way that I love you
And it was late in the evening, and all the music's seeping through
