[Verse 1]
G# C#/G# G# C#/G#
I got appointments, work I have to do
A#m/F F A#m A#m/G# D#
Keeping me so busy all the day through
G# Fm
They're the things that keep me from thinking of you
A#m G#
Ohhh baby, I miss you so
C#
I know I'm never gonna make it
D# C#/G# G# C#/G#
Oh, I'm so restless, I don't care what I say
A#m/G# F A#m A#m/G# D#
And I lose my temper ten times a day
G# Fm
Still it's even worse when the night's on its way
A#m C#
It's bad, oh, so bad
[Chorus]
C# A#m7 C#/G#
Somehow I'd be doing alright if it wasn't for the nights
G# C#/G# G#
(If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could make it)
C# A#m7 C#/G#
I'd have courage left to fight if it wasn't for the nights
G# C#/G# G#
(If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could take it)
C# A#m7 D#
How I fear the time when shadows start to fall
A#m7 C#/D#
Sitting here alone and staring at the wall
C# A#m7 C#/G#
Even I could see a light if it wasn't for the nights
G# C#/G# G#
(Even I could see a light I think that I could make it)
C# A#m7 C#/G#
Somehow I'd be doing alright if it wasn't for the nights
G# C#/G# G#
(If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could take it)

[Verse 2]
G# C#/G# G# C#/G#
No one to turn to, you know how it is
A#m/F F A#m A#m/G# D#
I was not prepared for something like this
G# Fm
Now I see them clearly, the things that I miss
A#m G#
Ohhh baby, I feel so bad
C#
I know I'm never gonna make it
D# C#/G# G# C#/G#
I got my business to help me through the day
A#m/F F A#m A#m/G# D#
People I must write to, bills I must pay
G# Fm
But everything's so different when night's on its way
A#m C#/D#
It's bad, oh, so bad
[Chorus]
C# A#m7 C#/G#

(Even I could see a light I think that I could make it)
C# A#m7 C#/G#
Guess my future would look bright if it wasn't for the nights
G# C#/G# G#
(If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could make it)
