[Verse 1]
A D/A A D/A
I got appointments, work I have to do
Bm/F# F# Bm Bm/A E
Keeping me so busy all the day through
A F#m
They're the things that keep me from thinking of you
Bm A
Ohhh baby, I miss you so
D
I know I'm never gonna make it
E D/A A D/A
Oh, I'm so restless, I don't care what I say
Bm/A F# Bm Bm/A E
And I lose my temper ten times a day
A F#m
Still it's even worse when the night's on its way
Bm D
It's bad, oh, so bad
[Chorus]
D Bm7 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 Bm7 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 Bm7 E
How I fear the time when shadows start to fall
Bm7 D/E
Sitting here alone and staring at the wall
D Bm7 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 Bm7 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
Bm/F# F# Bm Bm/A E
I was not prepared for something like this
A F#m
Now I see them clearly, the things that I miss
Bm A
Ohhh baby, I feel so bad
D
I know I'm never gonna make it
E D/A A D/A
I got my business to help me through the day
Bm/F# F# Bm Bm/A E
People I must write to, bills I must pay
A F#m
But everything's so different when night's on its way
Bm D/E
It's bad, oh, so bad
