C                           D                   Am
Hey little kitty with your tail dragging on the floor.
C                             D                  Am
You could have a following in every town that you go,
C                                Am
But you remember what you said to me
C                               D
That you are nothing without me

           F          G Am
'Cause I invented the night
          F           G Am
Yeah I invented the night
         C              D        F 
In my laboratory using lust and lies


Hey little birdie fly until your wings desert you.
And when you come down, come down on me 'cause you know I will never hurt you.
But maybe once or twice I'll ruffle your feathers,
'Cause you said we should always be together

'Cause I invented the night
Yeah I invented the night
Mixing elements of the strangest kind

G                   Am                       C
And should your invention be destroyed in a fire
C
John, it's only Monday
           G  
I gave you Tuesday night, and Wednesday night,
    Am
and Thursday night and Friday night,
Bb                                  C
The weekend is a sea of electric light,
C
Turn it on

Hey little doggy always looking for a bigger bone,
Try to see how many times that you can run away from home.
But in the end you always come back to me
'Cause you are nothing without me

'Cause I invented the night,
Yeah I invented the night,
Mixing elements of the strangest kind

End on Am

Enjoy!
