  Capo 1st Fret - 4/4 Time

Intro:  G  [G ' F C]  C  [C ' F G]  (2Xs)


G                        [G    '              F C]
I was a little too tall, could used a few pounds
C                        [C    '    F G]
Tight pants, points, hardly reknown
G                        [G    '              F C]
She was a black haired beauty with big dark eyes
C                        [C    '    F G]
And points all her own sittin' way up high
G                        [G  '  F C]
....
C                        [C  '  F G]
....  way up firm and high
G                        [G    '              F C]
Out past the cornfields, where the woods got heavy
C                        [C  '  F G]
Out in the backseat of my sixty Chevy
G                        [G    '   F C]
Workin on mysteries without any clues
C

Chorus:
------
[C   '   D Em| |Em  '  D C]
Working on our night moves
[C   '   D Em| |Em  '        D      C] 
Tryin' to make some front page drive-in news
|C   '   D Em| [Em  '  D  C] [C  '  D  G]
Working on our night moves....


Verse:
-----

G                        [G  ' F C]
......in the summertime
C                        [C  ' F G]
  in the sweet, summertime, summertime
G                        [G  ' F C]
We weren't in love, oh no, far from it
C                        [C  '                F G]
We weren't searching for some pie-in-the-sky summit
G                        [G  '   F C]
We were just young and restless and bored, 
C                        [C  '  F G]
Living by the sword
G                        [G  '  F C]
And we'd steal away every chance we could 
C                        [C  '             F G]
To the back room, the alley, or the trusty woods
G                        [G  '             F C]
I used her, she used me but neither one cared
C                        [C
We were getting our share


Chorus:
------
[C   '   D Em| |Em  '  D C]
Working on our night moves
[C   '   D Em| |Em  '        D      C] 
Tryin' to make some front page drive-in news
|C   '   D Em| [Em  '  D  C] [C  '  D  G]
Working on our night moves....


G                    [G ' F C]
      in the summertime
C          [C ' F G]
Ohhhhh....
G                    [G ' F C]
Sweet, summertime, summertime
C          [C ' D Em  (hold)]
....
[Em  '  D   G]  G7


Interlude:
---------

     Cmaj7
And ohhhhh..........
   G         Cmaj7 
I  wonder         hey, we felt the lightening.
F                             D                G (hold)
And we waited on the thunder,  waited on the thunder
  G             
I woke last night to the sound of thunder
Cmaj7
How far off I sat and wondered,
        G
Started humming a song from 1962
Cmaj7                         Em
       Ain't it funny how the night moves
C                     Em                C
We just don't seem to have as much to lose
                Em
Strange how the night moves    
C        Cmaj7            G
     with autumn closing in


Outro:
-----
G              [G ' F C]
Night moves.....
C              [C ' F G]
Night moves.....
G              [G ' F C]
Night moves.....
C              [C ' F G]
Night moves.....

(repeat and fade)
