Night Owl

• C

Night Owl by Gerry Rafferty

-Capo 3rd fret

This is the best I can figure and it sounds to me about right even though the D 
maj shouldn’t normally be in a C key. feel free to correct anything
  
C          G                    D
Night time comes and finds you alone
                            Am
In a space and time of your own
         Em                          Bm C 
Lost in dreams in a world full of shadows

C        G                      D
Down the street the neon light shines
                                Am
Offering refuge and hope to the blind
            Em                      Bm   C  
You stumble in with no thought of tomorrow

      G                   D        C
Yes I get lonely when the sun gets low
      G                      D        C
And I end up looking for somewhere to go
      G                        D
Yes I should know better but I cant say no
Am       Bm   C* third fret barre 
Oh no no nono nono no

              G                     D  
The lights are low and the music is loud
                                      Am
You watch yourself as you play to the crowd
         Em                    Bm C
One more face in a palace of mirrors
         G                  D 
One more drink your sailing away
         Am                    Em 
One more dream but its looking okay
         C                               Bm C 
One more time to watch the flow of the river

Yes I get lonely when the sun gets low
And I end up looking for somewhere to go
Yes I should know better but I cant say no
Oh no no nono no no no no no no

Yes I get lonely when the sun gets low
And I end up looking for somewhere to go
Yes I should know better but I cant say no
Oh no no
Oh no no no
No no no no no no no no no no

               C                       D
You’ve seen it all yeah you’ve seen it before
       Am                            Em
Like a fool you always come back for more 
                                            Bm C
You live your life like there was no more tomorrow
           G                   D
Night time comes and finds you alone 
                            Am
In a space and time of your own
        Em                     Bm C
Lost in dreams in a world of shadows

Yes I get lonely when the sun gets low
And I end up looking for somewhere to go
Yes I should know better but I cant say no
Oh no no
Oh no no no
No no no no no no no no no no
