There's a storm blowing off the mountain 
                    
It's not a welcome sight 
G                D                 Am 
From a cigarette swag on a two dog night 
Am

        F     C     Bb         Am     G                   
And I'm weary to my bones but I can't sleep 
 
 
            Am       F                   C 
It's a long night... staring at the fire light

It's a long night... missing you 
            Am       Em                     F

It's a long night... missing you
