[Gm] [Ab] [Bb]
I want to dedicate this song to all the lovers of night.
[Eb]
[Ab] And I expect that might be the whole world because everybody [Bb] needs something or someone to love.
[Eb]
[Ab] When it's cold [Bb] outside, who are you holding?
[Gm]
[Ab] [Bb]
You know, if y'all don't [Cm] mind, I'd like to talk about [Ab] this woman of mine.
She's [Eb] always complaining about [Bb] me never being at home.
[Gm] [Eb]
But when her val broke, [Cm] [F] she's telling about the things that her girlfriend's got,
what she ain't got, and she want me to go out and get them for [Ab] her, but girl, I can't
be in [Fm] two places at once!
[Ab] If you think you own [Bb] it now, [Gm] wait until [Ab] tonight girl, I float!
[Bb]
[Gm] And you [Ab] never find a lover man that'll pick you right
Ain't got no [Bb] baby
When I ain't there to rub [Gm] your back
[Ab] Just remember I made it in my own [F] back
And the skeletons come out of the closet
And chase you all around your [Fm] room
And the memories fell out [Bbm] like a ghost
And there's a run and a [Gm] fast flow too
[Bb]
[Ab] I can make you roll in love
[Bb]
[Gm] Won't wait another [Ab] night
I'll be long [Bb] gone
And you'll never [Eb] find another [Ab] man that'll pick you right
You [Bb] think you're lonely now
[Ab] When you're in [F]
the name of God
I'll [Cm] go in your [Ab] way
But when love walks in and pain walks out
I'm gonna [Fm] say, [Ab] whoa
Ain't [Bb] got no baby
Lord help me
I feel [Gm] [Ab] like I'm gonna testify
[Bb]
[Gm]
[Ab] Run away
If you think you're lost
[Bb] [Gm] Oh, [Ab] you're just waiting until the night comes
Won't let my [Bb] feet touch
[Gm] Won't let me feel [Ab] good
[F] You see the night when the deeps come out
When the knees come out to [Ab] creep
And the toes are stuck
And there ain't no way you can sleep
[Eb] [Ab] Whoa
[Bb] If you think you're lonely now
Won't let [Eb] me [Ab] feel good
I feel like I'm gonna testify
I know [Bb] I gotta leave you
Oh girl, I just can't take no more
To [Ab] the night
Oh [Bb]
girl, you're just waiting
[Ab] To the night
[Cm] You're not [Bb] leaving
If you think you got problems now baby
You're just waiting, [Gm] waiting
[Ab] To the night
If you think you're [Bb] lonely now
Too far [Gm] gone
I'm backing [Cm] up now
[Gm] Oh [Bb]
[Gm] baby
To [Ab] the [Cm]
night
You say you're a little lonely
But [Bb]
everybody needs somebody to love
[Eb] To [Cm] the night
It's good that you know [Bb] that you got somebody
That'll stand by your side
That'll build you up when you're [Eb] falling down
[Ab] To the night
And you had that someone baby
[Bb] Don't be down
Cause I've done my time
[Ab] And it's your turn now
To the night
If you think [Bb] you're lonely now Waiting, [Ab] waiting
To the night
[Bb] I'm tired
Out of the same old [Ab] second job
It's been too long
To [Bb] think that we could start all over again
[Gm] It's been too long
[Ab] To think that we could start all [Bb]
