 Marvin,         he was a friend of mine,
             C           Cadd9 C             D
And he could sing a song,       his heart in every line.
G       Em7  C                D
 Marvin,          sang of the joy and pain,
          C            Cadd9 C                D
He opened up our minds,       and I still can hear him say;
 
[Bridge 1:] 
     Em             Am7                 D
Aww, talk to me, so you can see; what's going on.
Em             Am7                  Cadd9
 Say you will, sing your songs, for-evermore, evermore.
 
[Chorus 1:] 
              G             Em          C       D
Gonna be some sweet sounds, coming down, on the nightshift.
             C                               G            Am7/D-x55555
I bet you're singing proud, oh, I bet you'll pull a crowd.
           G                         Em      C       D
Gonna be a long night; it's gonna be alright, on the nightshift.
                C                          D                G          Em7
Oh, you found a-nother home, I know you're not alone on the nightshift.
            C                          D               (G)
You found a-nother home, I know you're not alone on the nightshift.

[Verse 2: ]
G       Em7 C              D
 Jackie,     hey, what you doing now?
              C         Cadd9 C             D
It seems like yesterday,       when we were working out.
G       Em7   C       D
 Jackie,  you set the world on fire.
             C         Cadd9 C             D
You came and gifted us;       your love it lifted us, higher and higher.
 
[Bridge 2:]
Em              Am7             D
 Keep it up and we'll be there, at your side.

Oh, say you will, sing your songs, for-evermore, evermore, evermore.

Gonna be some sweet sounds, coming down, on the nightshift.

I bet you're singing proud, oh, I bet you'll pull a crowd.
           G                         Em      C       D
Gonna be a long night; it's gonna be alright, on the nightshift.
                C                          D                Em7
Oh, you found a-nother home, I know you're not alone on the nightshift.
