And this is what I make of the lyrics (between brackets the corresponding above guitar parts):

 

(2) Caught in those tired eyes

Go with me all the time

And in the dead of night

Tell me you will be mine

 

(3) Where do you go to, pretty babe

Where do you go to when the night wins away

Well ask me so sweetly what do I do

Who do I sing for, my honey I sing about (4) you, you...

 

GREAT SONG (better than In my place IMHO)

 

Enjoy!
