The Emfull moon is calling, the D6fever is high
and the Cmaj7wicked wind whispers and moans,
Amyou got your demons, you got your desires,
well, EmI got a Bm7few of my B7own.
Cmaj7Oh, someone to be kind to Gmaj7in between the darkness and light.
Cmaj7Oh, coming right behind you, well, AmI'm gonna find you
B7One of these Nights.
One of these Emdreams, D6one of these Cmaj7lost and lonely dreams
Amwe are gonna find a girl, one that Emreally Bm7screaB7ms
I've been Emsearchin' for the daughter of the D6devil himself
I've been Cmaj7searchin' for an angel in white.
I've been Amwaitin' for a woman who's a little of both
and I can Emfeel her but she's Bm7nowhere in B7sight.
Cmaj7Oh, loneliness will bind you Gmaj7in between the wrong and the right
Cmaj7Oh, coming right behind you, Amswear I'm gonna find you
B7One of these Nights...

She turns 'round

Her beauty all aflight
It always seems to turn the tide
At midnight
And for her there is no rest
We are doing what is best
For our future
One of these days she may not
Be so good to you
One of these days she might
Chain you to the ground
But her fire is still burning
AnF5d her heartE5 is still D5yearning to be found

Too many hands
Being laid on her
Too many eyes will never see
That it's dragging her down
But you won't hear a sound as
She turns round

Springtime and the lady is grieving,
the lovers just stand there with nothing to say.
They got what they wanted, they're packing and leaving
to look for another to love the same way.
So give her this dance, she can't be forsaken.
Learn how to love her with all of her faults.
She gave more than she's taken
and EI'll gAo downB doing tAhe HoE/G#llywooF#m7d Waltz,

A Grich old man, and Gmaj7she wont' have to Cworry;
She'll Amdress up all in Clace and go in Gstyle
CHORUS

You can't GhidCe your lyin' Geyes
And your EmsmilBme is a thin disAmguiseD
I thought by GnoG7w you'd realCize A
There Amain't no way to Dhide your lyin' Geyes
Additional Lyrics
-----------------
Late at night a big old house gets lonely
I guess every form of refuge has its price.
And it breaks her heart to think her love is only
Given to a man with hands as cold as ice.
So she tells him she must go out for the evening
To comfort an old friend who's feelin' down
But the knows where she's goin' as she's leavin'
She is headed for the cheatin' side of town
CHORUS
She gets up and pours herself a strong one
And stares out at the stars up in the sky
Another night, it's gonna be a long one
She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry
My, oh my, you sure know how to arrange things
You set it up so well, so carefully
Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things
You're still the same old girl you used to be
CHORUS
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Take it to the limit
Intro: C F C G F
CAll alone at the end of the eFvening
And the brCight lights have faded to bFlue
I was thCinkin' 'bout a wE7oman who might have lAmoved me
And I never kGnew C
You know I've aDlways been a drCeamer Spent my life rFunning round
And it's so hard to chCange Can't seem to sFettle down
But the dreams I've seen lDmately F
Keep turnin' out and
Chorus
FaddG
burnin' out &amGp; turnin' out tFhe samGeSo pFut me on a hCighway &amFp; show meC a sign
And tFake it to the lGimit one more tCime G F
You can spCend all your time making mFoney
You can spCend all your love making tFime
If it Call fell to pE7ieces tomoAmrrow would you still be mGine
And when you're loDoking for your frCeedom nobody sFeems to care
And you can't find the dCoor, can't find it Fanywhere
When there's nothin' to belDmieve in F
FaddG G F
Still you're commin' back, you're runnin' back, you're commin' back for more
Chorus
So pFut me on a hiCghway &F; show meC a sign
And tFake it to the lGimit one more tAmime G
Ending
FTake it to the liGmit, tFake it to the lGimit
FTake it to the lGimit one more tCime
You can tFake it to the lGimit, yes tFake it to the liGmit
One more tCime.
