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

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