The Nights Too Long

You might want to play this with the
 G C D chord forms using a capo in 
the
2nd fret for the open tones.

A                      D
Silvia was working as a waitress in 
Beaumont
             A                     
She said I'm moving away I'm gonna 
         E
get what I want
   A                               
I'm tired of these small town boys,
      D
 they don't move fast enough
          A                      
I'm gonna find me one who wears a 
                   E               
leather jacket and likes his living
 A
 rough

A                                 
So she saved her tips and over 
     D
time and bought an old rusty car
     A                             
She sold most everything she had to
                  E
 make a brand new start
           A                     
She said I won't be needing these 
      D
silly dresses and nylon hose
            A                      
Cause when I get to where I'm 
           E              A
going, I'm gonna buy me all new 
clothes

A             D                   
The nights too long, it just drags 
 A
on and on
                       E
And then there's never enough
                                  A
That's when the sun starts coming up

                   D    E         
Don't let go of her hand, you just
             A    D
 might be the right man
    E         D          E        
She loves the night, she loves the 
D
night
    E                D
She doesn't want the night
                 A
Don't want it to end
D                A
Don't want it to end

A                                 
Well she works in an office now, 
       D
and she guesses the pays alright
          A                      
She can a buy a few new things to 
                          E
wear, and still go out at night
        A                        
and as soon as she gets home from 
                    D
work, she wants to be out with the 
crowd
              A                 
Where she can dance and toss her 
                E        A
head back and laugh out loud

A                              
Well the music playing fast, and 
   D
they just met
   A                             
He presses up against her and his 
                        E
shirts all soaked with sweat
             A                     
And with her back against the bar, 
        D
she can listen to the band
          A                        
And she's holding a Corona and it's
E                A
 cold against her hand

A             D                   
The nights too long, it just drags 
 A
on and on
                       E
And then there's never enough
                                  A
That's when the sun starts coming up
                   D    E         
Don't let go of her hand, you just
             A    D
 might be the right man
    E         D          E        
She loves the night, she loves the 
D
night
    E                D
She doesn't want the night
                 A
Don't want it to end
D                A
Don't want it to end

D                A
Don't want it to end
