[Verse 1]
F A#/F F A#/F
I got appointments, work I have to do
Gm/D D Gm Gm/F C
Keeping me so busy all the day through
F Dm
They're the things that keep me from thinking of you
Gm F
Ohhh baby, I miss you so
A#
I know I'm never gonna make it
C A#/F F A#/F
Oh, I'm so restless, I don't care what I say
Gm/F D Gm Gm/F C
And I lose my temper ten times a day
F Dm
Still it's even worse when the night's on its way
Gm A#
It's bad, oh, so bad
[Chorus]
A# Gm7 A#/F
Somehow I'd be doing alright if it wasn't for the nights
F A#/F F
(If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could make it)
A# Gm7 A#/F
I'd have courage left to fight if it wasn't for the nights
F A#/F F
(If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could take it)
A# Gm7 C
How I fear the time when shadows start to fall
Gm7 A#/C
Sitting here alone and staring at the wall
A# Gm7 A#/F
Even I could see a light if it wasn't for the nights
F A#/F F
(Even I could see a light I think that I could make it)
A# Gm7 A#/F
Somehow I'd be doing alright if it wasn't for the nights
F A#/F F
(If it wasn't for the nights I think that I could take it)

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