[Intro]
Am C Fmaj7 G
Am C Fmaj7 G
[Chorus 1]
Am C
Kill the lights and put your nightdress on
Fmaj7 G
Have a last cigarette and leave one out for the morn'
Am C
Kill the lights, babe I'm too damn tired

We can't fuck tonight, I'm workin' double tomorrow

Kill the lights and baby right this wrong!

A5 D5
We got married and I don't remember
A5 D5 *fill
I just kinda surrendered because I didn't want the summer to end
A5 D5
Her daddy had some money that he could lend us
A5 D5 *fill
And so I took her to Paris, and I tried to be a Renaissance man
[Pre-Chorus]
* (Note: I'm almost certain the lyrics in the final two lines here are wrong. He switches the second line up
from one performance to another, and the final one just is too slurred to be 100% sure what he's saying. The
chords are right though, as far as I could tell.)
F5
But we were too young, too quick to jump
G5 E5
Livin' off of life, that's nothin' at all
F5 G5 E5
We got a far fly, far far to fly y'know, heyyyyyy
[Chorus 2]
Am C
Kill the lights and put your nightdress on

Kill the lights, babe I'm too damn tired

[Verse 2]
A5 D5
I took her dad's caddy out for a ride
A5 D5 *fill
And I never came back. Lord, I couldn't stand to see her face

All she kept doin was talking about
A5 D5 *fill
All the times we've had, and that another man would take my place
[Pre-Chorus]
