[Intro]
C   Cmaj7     C7   F
Fm   C   G   F   C   G   C

[Verse 1]
C
     They sat together in the park
Cmaj7
     As the evening sky grew dark
C7
     She looked at him and he felt a spark
F
Tingle to his bones
Fm
     'Twas then he felt alone
        C                  G                F
And wished that he'd gone straight
        C                            G                          C
And watched out for a simple twist of fate

[Verse 2]
C
      They walked along by the old canal
Cmaj7
      A little confused, I remember well
C7
      And stopped into a strange hotel
             F
With a neon burning bright
      Fm
He felt the heat of the night
C            G          F
Hit him like a freight train
C                      G                           C
Moving with a simple twist of fate

[Verse 3]
C
     A saxophone someplace far off played
Cmaj7
     As she was walking on by the arcade
C7                                                                        F
     As the light bust through a beat-up shade
            F
Where he was waking up
                         Fm
She dropped a coin into the cup
        C        G                 F
Of a blind man at the gate
C                                G                                C
And forgot about his simple twist of fate

[Instrumental]

Fm   C   G   F   C   G   C
( harmonica solo : E)

[Verse 4]
C
      He woke up, the room was bare
Cmaj7
      He didn't see her anywhere
C7
      He told himself he didn't care
                       F
Pushed the window open wide
                 Fm
Felt an emptiness inside
                           C         G      F
To which he just could not relate
C                              G                           C
    Brought on by a simple twist of fate

[Verse 5]
C
      He hears the ticking of the clocks
Cmaj7
      And walks along with a parrot that talks
C7
      Hunts her down by the waterfront docks
                  F
Where the sailors all come in
             Fm
Maybe she'll pick him out again
         C       G            F
How long must he wait
C                                 G                           C
One more time for a simple twist of fate

[Verse 6]
C
      People tell me its a sin
Cmaj7
      To know and feel too much within
C7
      I still believe she was my twin
 F
But I lost the ring
   Fm
She was born in spring
      C          G           F
But I was born too late
C                     G                             C
Blame it on a simple twist of fate
