Intro chords: D  Bm  E  C#m  A   repeat 
 
 VERSE 1 : 
 A     D    A             D 
I got appointments, work I have to do 
      F#7    Bm   Bm7                 E 
Keepin‘ me so busy all the day through 
                       A                            F#m 
They‘re the things that keep me from thinkin‘ of you 
 Bm7      A              D                    E 
Oh baby, I miss you so, I know I‘m never gonna make it 
          D    A            D 
Oh, I‘m so restless, I don‘t care what I say 
    F#7      Bm    Bm7               E 
And I lose my temper ten times a day 
               A                                F#m9 
Still it‘s even worse when the night‘s on its way 
    Bm   D   E11 
It‘s bad, oh, so bad 
 
 CHORUS : 
 D                    Bm                             A D A Bm A 
Somehow I‘d be doin‘ alright if it wasn‘t for the nights 
 If it wasn‘t for the nights I think that I could make it 
 D                     Bm                          A  D  A Bm A 
I‘d have courage left to fight if it wasn‘t for the nights 
 If it wasn‘t for the nights I think that I could take it 
 D                     Bm9                    E 
How I fear the time when shadows start to fall 
 D                      E                 D 
Sittin‘ here alone and starin‘ at the wall 
 
                 Bm                                A  D 
Even I could see a light if it wasn‘t for the nights 
(Even I could see a light I think that I could make it) 
Somehow I‘d be doin‘ alright if it wasn‘t for the nights 
(If it wasn‘t for the nights I think that I could take it) 
 
 VERSE 2 : 
No-one to turn to, you know how it is 
I was not prepared for something like this 
Now I see them clearly, the things that I miss 
Oh baby, I feel so bad, I know I‘m never gonna make it 
I got my business to help me through the day 
People I must write to, bills I must pay 
But everything‘s so different when night‘s on its way 
It‘s bad, oh, so bad 
 
 CHORUS
