[Verse 1]
        C                C7
There’s lonely hearts in Arkansas
        F
There’s truckers in Des Moines
    G                               C
All there to keep me company in the early morn
  C                C7
A world unknown to daytime
     F
Is forever going on
    C               G
The airwaves of the nation
        F                C
Between midnight and the dawn


[Chorus]
C    F     G    C
Late night radio
Am
Take it everywhere I go
   F                    C
My best friend when I’m lonely
      G              C
Is my late night radio


[Verse 2]
        C
Well, I turn the dial
  C7              F
A little bit past one-0-one point two
   G
In time to catch the news
              C
And see who’s shooting who
       C               C7
Then I hunt around for old songs
           F
They’re so good to hear again
   C               G
To think of how it was
        F                 C
Imagine how it might have been


[Chorus]
C    F     G   C
Late night radio
Am
Take it everywhere I go
   F                    C
My best friend when I’m lonely
      G              C
Is my late night radio


[Bridge]
Am
La la la I sing along
         G
‘cause I never know the words
C           F           G
La la la la la la la la laaa
    F
I’d love to call a talk show
                      C
But I haven’t got the nerve
      G            C
La la la, Oh, oh, oh, radio


[Verse 3]
    C                C7
The Lord is still my shepherd
         F
But them preachers got to go
     G
This time of night my interest
        C
Lies in UFOs
     C               C7
So I turn the dial a little
     F
Past fifty-six point three
   C             G
To find myself a lullaby
   F              C
To rock me off to sleep


[Chorus]
C    F     G   C
Late night radio
Am
Take it everywhere I go
   F                    C
My best friend when I’m lonely
      G          C
Is my late night radio

C    F     G   C
Late night radio
Am
Take it everywhere I go
   F                    C
My best friend when I’m lonely
      G          C
Is my late night radio
