Chords with lyrics
Night Owl - from No Secrets - 1972
FF
Now a fish kinda likes the water
And that's just where he wants to be
And a monkey kinda digs bananas
So he lives in the top of a tree
G+G
But my eyes are made for darkness
Eb MajorEb
So the nightime is right for me
FF
'Cause I'm a night owl honey, sleep all day long
I'm a night owl honey, sleep all day long
FF
Most folks they like the daytime
'Cause they like to see the shining sun
They're up in the mornin'
Off and a runnin' till they're too tired for havin' fun
G+G
But when the sun goes down and the bright lights shine
Eb MajorEb
My daytime has just begun
FF
'Cause I'm a night owl honey, sleep all day long
I'm a nightowl honey, sleep all day long
C majorC
G+G
Won't you turn out them bright lights baby
G+G
They're just about to drive me blind
G+G
Oh won't you draw then curtains for me papa
FF
Watch and you'll see my love light shine
G+G
Now there are two sides to this great big world
And one of them is always night
If you can take care of business in the sunshine baby
I guess you're gonna be alright
A augmentedA
But don't come looking for me to lend you a hand
Eb MajorEb
My eyes just can't stand the light
G+G
'Cause I'm a night owl honey, sleep all day long
'Cause I'm a night owl honey, sleep all day long
