Lonely Nights Chords by Mickey Gilley

[D] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
[D] Pardon me, _ _ [G] I don't mean to waste [D] your time
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _
I just [D] need someone to [A] talk to, [B] _ [Bm] _
if [E] you don't [Em] mind
_ [Bm] _ [A] _ [G] _
[A] _ [D] Well, I fought the loneliness, [G] _ _
but tonight I [D] guess
I'm just too weak [G] to fight _
_ [D] I can take the lonely [B] days, but I can't take these [D] lonely nights
[G] _ _ [A] _ _
[G] _ [D] Are you alone?
_ _ [G] _ _
Tell me [D] what's your name?
_ _ _ [G] _
_ [D] I just need someone [A] to lean [Bm] on, [F#m] I'm [Bm] not playing [Em] any games
[F#m] _ [Em] _ _
[F#m] _ [Em] [D] So sit down here beside [G] me, and let me buy [D] you a glass
Of [G] red rose wine
[D] I can take the lonely [F#m] [A] days, but I can't take these [D] lonely [G] nights
_ [D] _ _
[F#m] _ [Bm] [A] And I thought that I was strong, [G] but [Em] the nights can [A] be so [G] long
When you need _ [D] a friend
_ [F#m] [Bm] Ah, but maybe we [F#m] could [G] find [F#m] a little [G] peace of [F#m] mind
[Em] _ Before the morning comes again
[B] [A] So [D] pardon me, _ [G] _
and if it seems I'm [D] holding on
_ _ [G] _ _
_ [D] Letting go, it just isn't [F#m] easy
[Bm] _
[A] When you're [Bm] sleeping [Em] all alone
[Bm] [Em] So _
[F#m] _ [Em] [D] let's forget about tomorrow
[G] Pick, steal, or borrow
[D] _ _ Just [G] a little time
I [D] can take the lonely [G] days, [A] but I can't take these [D] lonely nights
_ _ [G] _ _
Yes, I [D] can take the lonely [F#m] [G] days, [A] but I can't take [D] these lonely nights
_ [G] _ _ [A] _ _ [G] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
