Standard (EADGBE)

Intro chords

D Bm E C♯m A

(VERSE 1): A I got ap D point A ments, work D I have to do

 Keepin' F♯7 me so Bm busy Bm7 all the day through E

They're the things that A keep me from thinkin' of you F#m

Bm7 Oh baby, I A miss you so, I D know I'm never gonna E make it

Oh, I'm so D rest A less, I don't D care what I say

 And I F♯7 lose my Bm temper Bm7 ten times A day E

Still it's even A worse when the night's on its way F#m9

 It's Bm bad, D oh, E11 so bad

(CHORUS): D Somehow I'd be doin' al Bm right if it wasn't for the nights A D A Bm A

(If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could make it)

D I'd have courage left to Bm fight if it wasn't for the A nights D A Bm A

(If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could take it)

D How I fear the time when Bm9 shadows start to fall E

D Sittin' here alone and E starin' at the wall D

Even I could see a Bm light if it wasn't for the nights A D

(Even I could see a light I think that I could make it)

Somehow I'd be doin' alright if it wasn't for the nights

(If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could take it)

(VERSE 2):No-one to turn to, you know how it is

I was not prepared for something like this

Now I see them clearly, the things that I miss

Oh baby, I feel so bad, I know I'm never gonna make it

I got my business to help me through the day

People I must write to, bills I must pay

But everything's so different when night's on its way

It's bad, oh, so bad
