   D                                             G 
  It's twilight and the street lights are coming on 
            D                                      A 
  I'm in a string of cars on this boulevard headed home 
         D                    D7                        
  I can hardly wait for you to make what whent wrong today 
   G          
  seem right 
              D             A                D 
  It's been a long hard day so bring on the night 
 

   D                                    G 
  Bring on the night and pull down the shades 
                 D                         A 
  lock the world outside and throw the key away 
              D                         A 
  Turn on the feelings and turn out the lights 
                 G    A               D 
  lets call it a day and bring on the night
 
  2nd verse: 
    D                                                 G 
  From nine to five it's the same old grind all week long 
           D                                      A 
  And the only thing that keeps me sane is coming home 
                D            D7                 
  And when the sun goes down you know how to set things 
  G 
  right 
   D                         A                 D 
  Let's put the day behind us and bring on the night. 
 
   Repeat Chorus:
