Night Owl - from No Secrets - 1972

        F
Now a fish kinda likes the water

And that's just where he wants to be And a monkey kinda digs bananas So he lives in the top of a tree

             G
But my eyes are made for darkness

          Eb      
So the nightime is right for me

       F
'Cause I'm a night owl honey, sleep all day long

I'm a night owl honey, sleep all day long

       F
Most folks they like the daytime

'Cause they like to see the shining sun They're up in the mornin' Off and a runnin' till they're too tired for havin' fun

           G
But when the sun goes down and the bright lights shine

            Eb
My daytime has just begun

        F
'Cause I'm a night owl honey, sleep all day long

I'm a nightowl honey, sleep all day long Eb C

            Dm                        F  G
Won't you turn out them bright lights baby

          Dm                          F G
They're just about to drive me blind

               Dm                     F  G
Oh won't you draw then curtains for me papa

Ab                 A      Bb         Bdim   C  F
Watch and you'll see my love light shine

               G
Now there are two sides to this great big world

And one of them is always night If you can take care of business in the sunshine baby I guess you're gonna be alright

      A
But don't come looking for me to lend you a hand

                               Eb
My eyes just can't stand the light

               G
'Cause I'm a night owl honey, sleep all day long

'Cause I'm a night owl honey, sleep all day long
