[Gm] [Ab]
[Bb] I want to dedicate this song to all the lovers of night [Gm] and [Eb]
[Ab] I expect that might be the whole
world because everybody [Bb] needs something, someone to love.
[Eb]
[Ab] When it's cold [Bb] outside, who are you holding?
[Gm]
[Ab]
[Bb] You know, if y [Eb]'all don't mind, I'd like to [Ab] talk about this woman of mine.
She's [Eb] always complaining [Bb] about me never being at home.
[Gm]
[Ab] But when I'm bad, I'm broke.
[Cm] [F] She's telling me about the things that her girlfriend's got, what she ain't got.
And she told me to [Fm] go out and get them for [Ab] her brother.
But girl, I can't be in [Fm] two places at one [Ab]
time.
If you think [Bb] you own it now,
[Gm] wait [Ab] until tonight, girl.
I'll be [Bb] long [Bb]
gone, [Gm] [Ab] and you'll never find another man that'll treat you right.
[Bb] When I ain't there [Gm] to rub your back, [Ab] just remember I made it through an old [F] fight.
And the skeletons come out of the closet and chase you all around your [Fm] room.
And the memories sell out like a ghost and dance around in your [Gm] bad, slow [Ab] tunes.
If you think you [Bb] own it now, [Gm]
[Ab] wait until tonight, girl.
I'll be [Bb] long gone, [Eb] and you'll never [Ab] find another man that'll treat you right.
[Bb] If you think you own it now, wait
[Ab] until tonight, girl.
[Cm] [F]
I'm a tough way, [Cm]
[Fm] but when love walks out and the pain walks out, I'm gonna [Ab] say, Oh!
[Bb] Oh, help me.
I [Eb] feel [Ab] like I'm gonna testify.
[Bb]
[Gm] Oh, wait [Ab] until tonight.
If you think you own [Bb] it
[Gm] now,
[Ab] Oh, just wait until tonight, girl.
[Bb]
[Cm] Tonight.
Oh, [Ab] wait [F] until tonight.
When the need come out, when the need come [Ab] out to greet,
And the tongue's a snare where you can sneak.
[Cm] [Bb] If you think you own it now,
[Eb] [Ab] I feel like I'm gonna testify to you.
[Bb] I'm on here, but I know I gotta leave you.
Oh, girl, [Gm] I just can't take [Ab] no more.
Wait until tonight, girl.
[Cm]
[Bb] Oh, girl, you [Ab] just wait until tonight, girl.
If you [Bb] think you got problems now, baby, just wait.
[Gm] Wait [Ab] until tonight, girl.
If you think [Bb] you're lonely now,
Too far gone, [Ab] I'm back in the now.
[Bb] Oh, [Gm] baby.
[Eb]
[Ab] Wait until tonight, [Eb] girl.
[Ab] You say you're a little lonely.
[Bb] Everybody needs somebody to love.
[Eb] Wait until [Ab] tonight, girl.
It's good that you [Bb] know that you got somebody
That'll stand by your side,
That'll fill you up when [Eb] you're falling down.
[Ab] Wait until tonight, girl.
And you have that someone, baby.
Wait until [Bb] tonight, girl.
Cause I've done my time,
[Eb]
[Ab] And it's yours to learn now.
If you think you're [Bb] lonely now,
[Eb] Wait, [Ab] wait until tonight, girl.
[Bb]
I'm tired.
I'm tired of this same old, same old [Ab] job.
It's been too long.
To [Bb] think that we could start all over again.
[Gm] It's been too long.
[Cm] To think we could start this [Ab] one more [Bb] time.
[N]
