It's midnight on the interstate and I'm flying like a bird
A                  F#m
I was talking to a friend of mine, he said
 C#m                D
"Have you heard the word?"

"I've got some people comin' by to celebrate the show,
A                D               E                A
Some of them are new in town and some of them you know"

I've got a local station on, Tejano music playing

No le puedo entender but you know that it's alright
A                  D           E                A
I'm headed down to San Antone, runnin' with the night

A
I've never been no daytime guy
E             A
Love the neon light
      D          F#m
I'm a saxophone, flash of chrome
E                A
Runnin' with the night

A               D              F#m            E
I lost my job a month ago so I took a small vacation
A                  F#m                 C#m          D
I went out west to make the best of my lowdown situation
A                D               F#m             E
Moved in with my sister you know she works every day
A                 D                E                    A
We don't see each other much but I guess it's just that way

A
I've never been no daytime guy
E             A
Love the neon light
      D                F#m
I'm a swingin' door, a meteor
E                A
Runnin' with the night

A                   D               F#m             E
I've settled down a time or two and tried the other way
      A          F#m        C#m             D
But I don't know what to do with myself all day
A                     D                 F#m                 E
The sun goes down you give you love one last long goodnight kiss
         A          D              E              A
Then you stay awake thinkin' 'bout everything you miss

A
I've never been no daytime guy
E             A
Love the neon light
      D              F#m
I'm a secret plan, a highwayman
E                A
Runnin' with the night

A                 D               F#m            E
I was born in the wintertime underneath a purple sky
A                     F#m             C#m                 D
I packed my things at seventeen and I kissed my folks goodbye
A                  D             F#m            E
Got no complaints, no regrets, I got no grand design
A                        D
I'll ride the horse that brought me here
        E                 A
'Till I cross that finish line

A                               E             A
I've never been no daytime guy, love the neon light
       D            F#m
I'm an amber eye, a coyote's cry
E                A
Runnin' with the night
      D                F#m
I'm a wall of fire, an angel choir
E                A
Runnin' with the night
