Night Owl - from No Secrets - 1972

        G
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

             D
But my eyes are made for darkness

          A#      
So the nightime is right for me

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

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

       G
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

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

            A#
My daytime has just begun

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

I'm a nightowl honey, sleep all day long A# G

            Am                        G  D
Won't you turn out them bright lights baby

          Am                          G D
They're just about to drive me blind

               Am                     G  D
Oh won't you draw then curtains for me papa

D#                 E      F         F#dim   G  G
Watch and you'll see my love light shine

               D
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

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

                               A#
My eyes just can't stand the light

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

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