D  C  D  G  C  D

                          G   
She said give me one good reason
C                          G
To make me turn around and stay
                             D 
It won't change the fact I'm leavin'
C                            D
This one's just for old time sake

                    G 
You were all I ever wanted
C                              G
But now the road's become your home
G                         D 
I wish you well with your songs
             C        D         G     D C G
But you were gone one night too long


Chorus 1:
    F         C
One night too long
                  G
Of lovin' you and living alone
                           D
I've been here for you and I've been strong
             C        D         G    C  D   
But you were gone one night too long


I just stood there in the silence
As she moved toward the door
And her words so paralyzin'
Brought my heart to the floor

Nothing quite as cold and lonely
Had ever cut me to the bone
Like the last thing that she told me
You were gone one night too long

Chorus 1

Chorus 2:
One night too long
I'm so tired of sleeping alone
Yes, I've been faithful and I've been strong
But you were gone one night too long

I've been here for you and I've been strong
But you were gone one night too long
