Verse:

Shades of night are fall - ing and I'm lone - ly,

Stand - ing on the cor - ner feel - ing blue.

Sweet - hearts out for fun,  Pass me one by one,

Guess I'll wind up like I al - ways do, with on - ly;

 

Chorus:

Me and my sha - dow,

Stroll - ing down the av - en - ue.

Me and my sha - dow,

Not a soul to tell our trou - bles to.

And when it's twelve o' - clock,  We climb the stair,

We nev - er knock,  For no - bod - y's there,

Just me and my sha -dow,

All a - lone and feel - ing blue.
