[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

D                          Bm7                         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)
