A A A A
A
Who will be at Sanssouci tonight?
A E7sus4 E7
The boys that made me lose the blues and then my eyesight
E7sus4
All together, playing games of cards
E7sus4 A E7sus4 E7
Gambling the tiny shards of brass, once my heart
A
Who will be at Sanssouci tonight?
A7 D
I'm looking through the window from the garden
Dm6 A
Waiting for the call in my hotel room
F A
I'm tired of writing elegies to boredom
E7sus4 E7 A
I just want to be at Sanssouci tonight
A
Who will be at Sanssouci tonight?
A E7sus4 E7
Surely not the one that loves me truly, only
E7sus4
He's probably down at the stables, there
E7sus4 A E7
Gently polishing my Cabriolet, only
A
I don't care, I really want to go
A7 D
So I'm opening the door wide to the ballroom
Dm6 A
Calling up some dude from my hotel room
F A
I'm tired of writing elegies in general
E7sus4 E7 A
I just want to be at Sanssouci tonight
D B7 F E A
Tonight,
D B7 F E A
tonight

A
The candles seem to all have been blown out
A E7sus4 E7
Cupid's wings have cobweb rings and no one's about
E7sus4
Could it be I came to the wrong place?
E7sus4 A E7sus4 E7
But I swear I saw them climb the stairs, that sweet master race
A
Who will be at Sanssouci tonight?
A7 D
It's only when you're outside that you notice
Dm6 A
Only through the window you can see them
F A
Once the door is open, all will vanish
E7sus4 E7 A
Ain't nobody at Sanssouci tonight
D B7 F E A
Tonight,
D B7 F E A
tonight
