Intro: (A#5) (A#5) (A#5) (A#5) 

I (A#5) drag in to work, to be on my feet
My boss wants to know, am I getting enough sleep
Well, I just (D#5) smile and said to him
Hey boss man everything is al(A#5)right
'Cause I (F5) don't want to tell him. (C#) (D#7)
You're keeping me (A#5) up nights, keeping me up nights

That ass(A#5)embly line keeps moving and I'm trying to be up
There ain't enough caffeine in this little coffee cup
I grab (D#5) 40 winks at lunch, and I forget my appet(A#5)ite
Cause I will (F5) get no rest at home (C#) (D#7)
Keeping me (A#5) up nights, keeping me up nights

  (D#7) Keeping me up nights, your love feels so right
  I for(A#5)get tomorrow's another day
  (D#7) I ain't complaining, (D#dim7) cause my heart keeps saying
  It's (F7) worth a million sleepless nights to be with you this way (C#) (D#7)
  Keeping me (A#5) up nights (C#) (D#7) 
  keeping me (A#5) up nights (C#) (D#7) (F7) (F7)

(A#5) Your love's so good, I don't want you to stop
But (A#5) if I don't get some rest, baby, I just might lose my job

And that as(D#5)sembly line goes by
One piece at a (A#5) time
I pre(F5)tend I'm countin' sheep (C#) (D#7)
Keeping me (A#5) up nights, keeping me up nights

  (D#7) Keeping me up nights, your love feels so right
  I for(A#5)get tomorrow's another day
  (D#7) I ain't complaining, (D#dim7) 'cause my heart keeps saying
  It's (F7) worth a million sleepless nights to be with you this way (C#) (D#7)
  You're keepin' me (A#5) up nights (C#) (D#7) 
  You're keepin' me (A#5) up nights (C#) (D#7) 
  Keeping me (A#5) up nights
