SOMETHING ABOUT THE NIGHT 101417 - LANCASTER STREET
James Michael Taylor
SOMETHING ABOUT THE NIGHT TIME - no Capo or Capo @ 4
(Am)Something about the (Bm)night time makes me feel alive
Makes me want to sing a song. Think about my life
(C)Maybe light a (D)candle. I like lemon grass
(Am)Something about the (Bm)night time (B Am E)
Something about the night that makes me feel aware
Cars tucked in the driveways. Silence everywhere
All my inner voices speaking loud and clear
Something about the night time
CHORUS Am step down…
Pitter patter goes the mouse in the pantry
“whaaaa,” goes the ghost in the bread box
And the spider on the porch got it sewed up
My dog and cat are deader than a donut
Something in the night calls me to my dreams
I try to sleep but she treats me so mean
Why can’t she go away. Leave me to my life?
She can’t be my dream girl if she won’t be my wife.

Kat Angel James Michael Taylor great song. I love the melody and the words
Got to be one of my may favorites you have shared!!! Love love love this one. First the rareified topic... loving the night time, the dark, what it does for me... as i said, "...u begin right there in the pitch dark of ur room to face the blooming moon knowing...u r of the darkness... a ghost haunting your own room & u move with delight that u are a wraith an invisible scrap of shadow..." echos your more succinct, "Something about the night that makes me feel aware,,. All my inner voices speaking loud and clear" Gwen Henry
