Late Nite Radio
Words & Music by Bill and Taffy Danoff
Sung by John Denver
from Windsong (1975)
D D7
There's lonely hearts in Arkansas
G Em
There's truckers in Des Moines
A A7 D
All there to keep me company in the early morn
D7
A world unknown to daytime
G Em
Is forever going on
D A
The airways of the nation
G A7 D
Between midnight and the dawn
D G A7 D
Late nite radio
Bm
Take it everywhere I go
G D
Best friend when I'm lonely
A A7 D
Is my late nite radio
D D7
Well I turn the dial
G Em
A little bit past one-o-one point two
A A7
In time to catch the news
D
And see who's shooting who
D7
Then I hunt around for old songs
G Em
They're so good to hear again
D A
To think of how it was
G A7 D
Imagine how it might have been
D G A7 D
Late nite radio
Bm
Take it everywhere I go
G D
Best friend when I'm lonely
A A7 D
Is my late nite radio
Bm
La La La I sing along
A
'Cause I never know the words
D G A
La La La La La La La La La
G
I'd love to call a talk show
D
But I haven't got the nerve
A D
La La La Oh Oh Oh radio
D D7
The Lord is still my shepherd
G Em
But these preachers got to go
A A7
This time of night my interest
D
Lies in U.F.O.'s
D7
So I turn the dial a little
G Em
Past fifty-six point three
D A
To find myself a lullaby
G A7 D
To rock me off to sleep
D G A7 D
Late nite radio
Bm
Take it everywhere I go
G D
Best friend when I'm lonely
A A7 D
Is my late nite radio
D G A7 D
Late nite radio
Bm
Take it everywhere I go
G D
Best friend when I'm lonely
A A7 D
Is my late nite radio
