[Verse 1]
A# D#/A# A# D#/A#
I got appointments, work I have to do
Cm/G G Cm Cm/A# F
Keeping me so busy all the day through
A# Gm
They're the things that keep me from thinking of you
Cm A#
Ohhh baby, I miss you so
D#
I know I'm never gonna make it
F D#/A# A# D#/A#
Oh, I'm so restless, I don't care what I say
Cm/A# G Cm Cm/A# F
And I lose my temper ten times a day
A# Gm
Still it's even worse when the night's on its way
Cm D#
It's bad, oh, so bad
[Chorus]
D# Cm7 D#/A#
Somehow I'd be doing alright if it wasn't for the nights
A# D#/A# A#
(If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could make it)
D# Cm7 D#/A#
I'd have courage left to fight if it wasn't for the nights
A# D#/A# A#
(If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could take it)
D# Cm7 F
How I fear the time when shadows start to fall
Cm7 D#/F
Sitting here alone and staring at the wall
D# Cm7 D#/A#
Even I could see a light if it wasn't for the nights
A# D#/A# A#
(Even I could see a light I think that I could make it)
D# Cm7 D#/A#
Somehow I'd be doing alright if it wasn't for the nights
A# D#/A# A#
(If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could take it)

[Verse 2]
A# D#/A# A# D#/A#
No one to turn to, you know how it is
Cm/G G Cm Cm/A# F
I was not prepared for something like this
A# Gm
Now I see them clearly, the things that I miss
Cm A#
Ohhh baby, I feel so bad
D#
I know I'm never gonna make it
F D#/A# A# D#/A#
I got my business to help me through the day
Cm/G G Cm Cm/A# F
People I must write to, bills I must pay
A# Gm
But everything's so different when night's on its way
Cm D#/F
It's bad, oh, so bad
[Chorus]
D# Cm7 D#/A#
Somehow I'd be doing alright if it wasn't for the nights

(Even I could see a light I think that I could make it)
D# Cm7 D#/A#
Guess my future would look bright if it wasn't for the nights
A# D#/A# A#
(If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could make it)
