[Verse 1]
F#m    E                D
I went walking down the boulevard
F#m      E                   D
Past the skateboards and the beggars
F#m       E              D
I was out looking in the windows
F#m      E                   D
Just out walking, letting my mind roam
F#m                E                D
If she hung around too much I might take her for granted
F#m            E                   D
But when I was away, she seemed an angel
F#m          E          D
The only one who really cared about me
F#m      E              D
The only one without an angle
E
For so long I've been lonely
D
Now I'm too weak to fight

[Chorus]
N.C
I've been waiting for tonight
 F#m  E     D        F#m   E     D
(Good night my love, sleep tight my love)

[Verse 2]
F#m       E                    D
Yes and I had a little time to kill
F#m  E                   D
As I crossed the parking lot
F#m               E               D
And I was feeling lucky to have a place to go
F#m     E                   D
Yeah my nerves were feeling shot
E
For so long I've been weary
D
There was no end in sight

[Chorus]
N.C
I've been waiting for tonight
 F#m  E     D        F#m   E     D
(Good night my love, sleep tight my love)

[Bridge]
G D G            A
    Oh I've been waiting 'round
 G  D         G          A
(Oh oh) For a night like this
 G    D     G              A
(Yeah yeah) Yeah I felt it coming down
 G      D     G
(Coming down) Since her first kiss

[Solo]
 F#m E D
 F#m E D
 F#m  E     D
(Good night my love)
 F#m E D

[Verse 3]
F#m          E                 D
Yeah and I'm wrestling with my overcoat
F#m      E                D
Yeah I'm fighting with my thoughts
F#m       E        D
I'm gonna trust my intuition
F#m       E                D
I'm gonna hope I don't get lost
E
For some time I've been lonely
D
I've been too weak to fight

[Chorus]
N.C
I've been waiting for tonight
 F#m  E     D        F#m   E     D
(Good night my love, sleep tight my love)
 F#m  E     D        F#m   E     D
(Good night my love, sleep tight my love)
 F#m  E     D        F#m   E     D
(Good night my love, sleep tight my love)
 F#m E D
 F#m E D
 F#m E D
 F#m  E     D        F#m   E     D
(Good night my love, sleep tight my love)
 F#m  E     D        F#m   E     D
(Good night my love, sleep tight my love)
