Am15 E16 B17 A18 6twas then he felt alone and wished that hed gone straight E19 B20 E21 7And watched out for a simple twist of fate. 8 11 12They walked alone by the old canal A22 little confused I remember well 13And stopped into a strange hotel with a neon burning bright 14He felt the heat of the night hit him like a freight train 15Moving with a simple twist of fate. 16 A23 saxophone someplace far off played 17As she was walking on by the arcade 18As the light bust through a-beat-up shade where he was waking up 19She dropped a coin into the cup of a blind man at the gate 20And forgot about a simple twist of fate. 21 22He woke up the room was bare 23He didn't see her anywhere 24He told himself he didn't care pushed the window open wide 25Felt an emptiness inside to which he just could not relate 26Brought on by a simple twist of fate. 27 28He hears the ticking of the clocks 29And walks along with a parrot that talks 30Hunts her down by the waterfront docks where the sailers all come in 31Maybe she'll pick him out again how long must he wait 32One more time for a simple twist of fate. 33 34People tell me it's a sin 35To know and feel too much within 36I still believe she was my twin but I lost the ring 37She was born in spring but I was born too late 38Blame it on a simple twist of fate.
