Burning The Midnight Oil chords by Porter Wagoner

C                           G7
Here we sit looking at each other

                                  C
Seems we're at a loss for what to say

                               F
Ties bind us both with someone else

         C                G7            C
We don't want to hurt but we must break away


    G7                      C
And tonight I'll sit home a thinking

    G7                      C
And tonight I'll sit home a drinking

                                     F
We both live in separate homes where there's no love at all

           C            G7           C
Staying up late burning the midnight oil


                                     G7
Tomorrow we'll meet here in the same place

                                       C
Where love and desires that just won't wait

                                      F
In each others arms we'll dream for a little while

               C                   G7              C
Then when it's time to leave it'll nearly drive us wild


    G7                      C
And tonight I'll sit home a thinking

    G7                      C
And tonight I'll sit home a drinking

                                     F
We both live in separate homes where there's no love at all

           C            G7           C
Staying up late burning the midnight oil
