(The) Little River Band - (The) Night Owl
I’ve heard this both played fast with electric guitars and slow in a wonderful
bluesy way – and both sound great! It can be found on ‘Greatest Hits’ and ‘Streams
of success’.
I searched everywhere for a tab for this but couldn’t find one anywhere…. So I
listened hard and set about creating my own. This is what I hear – but it’s my
first attempt and no doubt with mistakes, so please send me suggestions for
improvements if you know better!

Verse:
Am
There’s a bar right across the street
Em
He’s got a need he just can’t beat
Am D Em
Out on the floor, he shuffles his feet away
Am
He’ll get the girl ‘cause he looks so fine
Em
He’s gonna win her every time
Am B Em
He knows he will, he’s dressed to kill, he’s a night owl
Chorus
C Em
So move on, there’s a howl of a night owl calling
C Em
To belong, she’s crying in the night
C Em
Be strong, find the heart of the night owl falling
C B Em
Stay up till dawn until the night is gone
Verse 2
Am
What will become of the restless kind
Em
Where do they go when they’ve done their time
Am D Em
Wearing their hearts out on the line for all to see
Am
Must be the gypsy in their soul
Em
They have a need to rock and roll
Am D Em
They always will, they’re out there still, they’re the night owls
Chorus
C Em
So move on, there’s a howl of a night owl calling
C Em
To belong, she’s crying in the night
C Em
Be strong, find the heart of the night owl falling
C B Em
Stay up till dawn until the night is gone (‘till the night is gone) guitar solo..
