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

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

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

Don't let go of her hand, you just might be the right man
    E         D          E        D
She loves the night, she loves the 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                                        D
Well she works in an office now, and she guesses the pays alright
          A                                                E
She can a buy a few new things to wear, and still go out at night
        A                                            D
and as soon as she gets home from work, she wants to be out with the crowd
              A                                 E        A
Where she can dance and toss her head back and laugh out loud

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

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