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
