Lyrics and Chords


[Capo 1]

I was a little too tall, could've used a few pounds
Tight pants, points, hardly renowned
She was a black haired beauty with big dark eyes
And points all her own sitting way up high
Way up firm and high

/ G - - GF / C - - CF / :

Out past the cornfields where the woods got heavy
Out in the back seat of my '60 Chevy
Workin' on mysteries without any clues
Workin' on our night moves
Tryin' to make some front page drive-in news
Workin' on our night moves
In the summertime, mmm
In the sweet summertime

/ " / " / G - - GF / C - - CD / Em EmD C CD / / 
   / Em EmD C - / G - - GF C - - CF / /

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

Workin' on our night moves
Trying to lose the awkward teenage blues
Workin' on our night moves, mmm
And it was summertime, mmm
Sweet summertime, summertime

... / G - - GF C - - CD Em - - EmD G - G7 - /

And oh, the wonder
Felt the lightning
And we waited on the thunder
Waited on the thunder

/ Cmaj7 - - - G - - - / Cmaj7 - - - /
   / F - - - / D - - - G - - - /

I woke last night to the sound of thunder
How far off, I sat and wondered
Started humming a song from 1962
Ain't it funny how the night moves
When you just don't seem to have as much to lose
Strange how the night moves
With autumn closing in

/ G - / Cmaj7 - / G - / Cmaj7 - Em C / 
   / Em C / Em C Cmaj7 - / G - - - /

Mmm, night moves
Night moves
   Night moves
Night moves
   Yeah
Night moves
   I remember
Night moves
   Oh, I sure remember the night moves
Night moves
   Ain't it funny how you remember
Night moves
   Funny how you remember
Night moves
   I remember, I remember, I remember, I remember
Night moves
   Oh, oh, whoah
Night moves
   We were workin', workin' and practicin'
Night moves
   Working' and practicin'
Night moves
   All of the night moves, night moves
Night moves
   Oh, I remember, yeah yeah yeah
Night moves
   I remember, ooh
Night moves
   I remember, Lord I remember, Lord I remember, huh-huh
Night moves
   Ooh ooh, oh yeah yeah yeah
   Uh huh, uh huh, I remember I remember
