Porter Wagoner - Burning the midnight oil

^CHere we sit looking at each ^G7other Seems we're at a loss for what to ^Csay

Ties bind us both with someone ^Felse We don't ^Cwant to hurt but ^G7we must break ^Caway

And ^G7tonight I'll sit home a ^Cthinking And ^G7tonight I'll sit home a ^Cdrinking

We both live in separate homes where ^Fthere's no love at all Staying up ^Clate burning ^G7the midnight ^Coil

Tomorrow we'll meet here in the same ^G7place Where love and desires that just won't ^Cwait

In each others arms we'll dream for a ^Flittle while Then when it's ^Ctime to leave it'll ^G7nearly drive us ^Cwild

And ^G7tonight I'll sit home a ^Cthinking And ^G7tonight I'll sit home a ^Cdrinking

We both live in separate homes where ^Fthere's no love at all Staying up ^Clate burning ^G7the midnight ^Coil
