E
I’ve honky tonked most all my life
                            B7
My day begins at the end of night
          E                    A
I stay up late it don’t bother me
               E                    B7
The darker the night the darker the night
             E
The better I see

[Chorus]
             A                         E
The lights I love--- are the lights of town
                                         B7
I thank the Lord above when the sun goes down
               E                         A
I find a shady spot and that’s where I’ll be
               E                    B7
The darker the night the darker the night
             E
The better I see

E
My hit parade has about three chords
                                  B7
But I guarantee that ya won’t get bored
                   E                        A
It starts getting’ good about a quarter til three
                   E                    B7
Oh, the darker the night the darker the night
             E
The better I see

[Chorus]
             A                         E
The lights I love--- are the lights of town
                                         B7
I thank the Lord above when the sun goes down
               E                         A
I find a shady spot and that’s where I’ll be
               E                    B7
The darker the night the darker the night
             E
The better I see

[Verse 3]
E
I rest my case at the break of day
                                   B7
What some call work brother I call play
                 E                 A
Cause I once was blind but now I’m free
                   E                    B7
Oh, The darker the night the darker the night
             E
The better I see

[Chorus]
             A                         E
The lights I love--- are the lights of town
                                         B7
I thank the Lord above when the sun goes down
               E                         A
I find a shady spot and that’s where I’ll be
               E                    B7
The darker the night the darker the night
             E
The better I see

[Outro]
A            E                     B7
You heard me right, The darker the night
             E
The better I see.
