The Night's Too Long chords and lyrics - LUCINDA WILLIAMS

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]Sylvia was working as
[C]a waitress in Beaumont
She said, "I'm [G]moving away,
I'm gonna get what I [D]want
I'm [G]tired of these small town boys,
they [C]don't move fast enough
I'm gonna [G]find me one who
wears a leather jacket
And [D]likes his living rough"
[G]

[Verse 2]
So she saved her tips and overtime
and [C]bought an old rusty car
She [G]sold most everything she had
to make a brand new [D]start
She said, "I [G]won't be needing these
silly [C]dresses and nylon hose
'Cause when [G]I get to where I'm going,
I'm gonna [D]buy me all new clothes"
[G]

[Verse 3]
The night's too [C]long,
it just drags [G]on and on
And then there's never enough,
[D]that's when the sun starts com[G]ing up
Don't let go of her [C]hand,
[D]you just might be the[G] right man[C]
She [D]loves the night,
[C]she lov[D]es the[C] night

[Verse 4]
She [D]doesn't want the [C]night,
don't want it to [G]end[C]
Don't want it to [G]end[C]
Well, she [G]works in an office now
And she [C]guesses the pay's all right
She can [G]buy a few new things to
wear and still go out at [D]night

[Verse 5]
And as [G]soon as she gets home from work,
she wants [C]to be out with the crowd
Where she can [G]dance and toss her
head back [D]and laugh out [G]loud
Well, the music's playing
fast and [C]they just met
He [G]presses up against her and
his shirt's all soaked with [D]sweat

[Verse 6]
And with her [G]back against the bar she
can [C]listen to the band
And she's [G]holding a Corona and
it's [D]cold against her [G]hand
The night's too [C]long
It just drags [G]on and on

[Verse 7]
And then there's never [D]enough
That's when the sun starts [G]coming up
Don't let go of her [C]hand
[D]You just might be the[G] right man[C]

[Verse 8]
She [D]loves [C]the night
She [D]loves the [C]night
She [D]doesn't want the [C]night,
don't want it to [G]end[C]
Don't want it [G]to [C]end
Don't want it to [G]end
