INTRO
Night am [Dm]creepin', slowly creepin', down the [Dm]lan[Gm]e[Dm]
Stars are [F]peeping', and I'm [Bbm]weepin' once ag[F]ain[A7]
I'm not [Dm]finding fault at [F]all
You're too[Bbm] big and I'm too [Dm]small
Be[Bb7]sides oh Lawd it's sinful to compla[A+]in[A7]
VERSE 1
You made the r[Dm]iver flow, the fl[A7]owers grow
[Dm] You made the weak and the s[Gm]trong
But L[Dm]awd, you m[A7]ade [Dm]the n[Bb7]ight t[A7]oo l[Dm]ong
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]I've got a heart and [E7]I got a cabin
The [A]door is open [B7]wide
[C]What good's a heart, and [G7]what good's a cabin
if n[C]obody lives ins[A7]ide?
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
