Tonight's the kind of night 
      Em                        C 
Where all things come together 
  
Tonight's the kind of night 
      Em                    F 
Where nothing need be said 
  
Tonight's the kind of night 
      C                 Am 
Where all the lamps are burning 
    F                     G      C 
And nobody wants to go to bed 
  
  
  
Some will have crackers and 
Em                      C 
Some will have pudding 
  
Soup and crispies and 
Em               F 
Home made bread 
  
And no one will go hungry 
    C                       F 
And lovers will be faithful 
  
We'll sip a little cup and 
G                                      C 
Then we'll sip another, and we'll sing
