Capo 3rd fret

C5                          G5
  You used to stand on the tables 
C5                           G5
  You used to shoot out the lights 
C5                            G5
  You used to stop trucks on I-19 
C5                      G5
  In your blue leopard tights
C5                          G5
  You got the vote of your high school 
C5                  G5
  Most likely to exceed 
C5                   G5
  But not likely to ever get enough
C5           D5        G5
  Enough of what you need

              C5       G5       C5   G5
Enough of the night
              C5       G5       C5   G5
Enough of the night

C5                      G5
  And now the carnival lights come down 
C5                          G5
  The sounds of laughter recede 
C5                           G5
  You sit and drink in this cardboard town
C5                       G5
  The fast lane gone to seed
C5                             G5
  You used to laugh about the damage done 
C5                         G5
  But there was no way to know 
C5                             G5
  How little distance you had actually come 
C5                   D5       G5
  And how far you'd have to go

E5
  It's tough to do, baby 
C5
  It's tough to make it 
E5
  Oooh-mmmm
D5
  When the heart is naked 
E5
  It's tough for you, baby 
C5                       G5
  It's tough for me, too 
                 A5      G5   D5
Without all this pain you see through

C5             G5
Now I want to see you smile 
         C5             G5
You know how it's just been awhile 
         C5          G5
Don't allow another night to close
        C5                        D5
On your empty cup, you've had enough of those

              C5         G5      C5  G5
Enough of the night 
              C5         G5      C5  G5
Enough of the night

C5                          G5
  You used to count on the miracles 
C5                     G5
  The old shot in the dark 
C5                          G5
  You used to wait for the setting sun 
C5                      G5
  To help you hit your mark
C5                          G5
  You used to stand on the tables
C5                           G5 
  You used to shoot out the lights
C5                              G5 
  You dressed right out of the fables, baby 
C5                  G5
  Like the Arabian Nights

C5                        G5
  But you were never the princess
C5                            G5
  More like the queen of the thieves 
C5                        G5
  And my heart was never more than one of the many 
C5   D5       G5   
  A queen receives

E5
  It's tough to do, baby
C5 
  It's tough to make it
E5
  Mmmmmm 
D5
  When the heart is naked
E5 
  It's tough for you, baby 
C5                       G5
  It's tough for me too 
               A5      G5   D5
Without the disdain to see through

C5              G5
Now, I want to see you smile 
         C5              G5
You know how, it's just been awhile
        C5           G5
Don't allow another heart to pass 
  C5
Beyond your reach, 
         D5
say baby not so fast 
                 C5       G5
Hey, baby not so fast
C5                          G5
  You've had enough of the night 
C5             D5           G5
  To fill the street with tears 
C5                            G5
  You've had enough of those empty hours 
C5           D5        G5
  To last a thousand years

              C5       G5      C5  G5
Enough of the night 
              C5       G5      C5  G5
Enough of the night 
              C5       G5
Enough of the night 

[slowly]
C5 D5           G5
Enough of the tears
