EWell I had a little feeling to have a big night And Bwoke up feeling small and not so brave and not quite right I had to Eface the who am I and where is she what did I do But worst of Aall I had to Bface the big Elight
Chorus
EThe big light came through my window and it Aopened up my eyelids And it Bsnapped them up like roller blinds and Etold me things that I did I can't Eface another day and night of Agood ideas and complications And I'm Bthankful I didn't open another bottle of inspiration
Nifty James Burton lick at end of chorus A--2---4--5--6--|-2---4--5--6--|-2---4--5--6--|--6\4--2----------| E---------------|--------------|--------------|----------3b4--0--| When the hangover this morning had a personality And I cast my shattered mind over selected memories I didn't even touch the light switch so I knew I'd never see The Haggard face that would be staring back at me Chorus Well I had a little feeling to have a big time And I woke to alarm bells like a big church chime I had to face the who am I and who is she what did I do But worst of all I had to face the big light Chorus
Well it's Efine to go out and Ahave a big night But sooner or Blater you've got to face the big Elight
