Capo 1st Fret
- 4/4 Time
Intro: G [G F C] C [C F G] (2 times)
G [G F C]
I was a little too tall, coulda' 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 [C
Chorus:
------
D Em] [Em D C] [C
Working on our night moves
D Em] [Em D C] [C
Tryin' to make some front page drive-in news

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:
------
D Em] [Em D C] [C
Working on our night moves
D Em] [Em D C] [C
Tryin' to lose the awkward teenage blues
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
