INTRO
Dm Dm Gm Dm
Night am creepin', slowly creepin', down the lane
F Bbm F A7
Stars are peeping', and I'm weepin' once again
Dm F
I'm not finding fault at all
Bbm Dm
You're too big and I'm too small
Bb7 A+ A7
Besides oh Lawd it's sinful to complain
VERSE 1
Dm A7
You made the river flow, the flowers grow
Dm Gm
You made the weak and the strong
Dm A7 Dm Bb7 A7 Dm
But Lawd, you made the night too long
VERSE 2
You made the robin sing a song of spring
And me you gave a lonely song
Oh Lawd that's why the night's so long
BRIDGE
A E7
I've got a heart and I got a cabin
A B7
The door is open wide
C G7
What good's a heart, and what good's a cabin
C A7
if nobody lives inside?
VERSE 3
You made the mountain high, the earth the sky
So who am I to say you're wrong
but Lawd you made the night too long
