[Intro]
| E B/D# | C#m    C#m/B | A   E/G# | F#m B7 |


[Verse]
E                B/D#                C#m      C#m/B
I just thought I heard a small voice crying
A                E/G#            F#m    B7
Looked again and saw that it was me
E             B/D#        C#m      C#m/B
I feel like a little boy denying
A                 E/G#                  F#m    B7
That he fears the night 'cause he can't see


[Bridge]
C                                    E
Then a larger thought said stop your crying
C                                        E
Don't be scared to search 'cause you may find
G#m                              A
Fate holds out a candle for your footsteps
F#                                  B
Time rolls back the shadows of your mind


[Chorus]
A    B E     B/D# C#m
It's a long, long lonely night
E                        B/D#   A
You can make the morning if you try
A    B E     B    C#m
It's a long, long lonely night
    G#m                          | Amaj7    A B |
Oh, we can make the morning if we try
      G#m                          | Amaj7 B |
Girl, we can make the morning you and I
  E
Together (together)
   B/D#
(Together - together)
  C#m           C#m/B | A | F#m | B |
Together (together)


[Verse]
E             B/D#               C#m      C#m/B
Loneliness is darkness' first companion
A                E/G#               F#m    B7
Spend the night alone and faith may bend
E                B/D#                C#m      C#m/B
Share it all and see how fear starts fading
A              E/G#           F#m    B7
Chase away the shadows with a friend


[Bridge]
C                              E
Dawn's elusive light is just beginning
C                             E
Now the day can push away the night
G#m                               A
Dreams can make the sun feel much brighter
F#                              B
Hope creates a foothold for the light


[Chorus]
A    B E     B/D# C#m
It's a long, long lonely night
E                             A
We can make the morning if we try
A    B E     B    C#m
It's a long, long lonely night
    G#m                          | Amaj7    A B |
Oh, we can make the morning if we try
      G#m                          | Amaj7 B |
Girl, we can make the morning you and I, oh
  E
Together (together)
   B/D#
(Together - together)
  C#m           C#m/B | A |
Together (together)


[Outro]
A    B E     B/D# C#m
It's a long, long lonely night
E                       B/D#  A
We can make the morning if we try
A    B E     B/D# C#m
It's a long, long lonely night
E                       B/D#  A
We can make the morning if we try
