Song title:      Such A Night
Original Album:  In The Right Place

Words and Music by Lincoln Chase and Mac Rebbenack
Copyright © 1973 Atco Records

NOTES:
A fabulous piano song written by Lincoln Chase and performed by Dr John
in the key of Bb. Unfortunately, Bb is a grisly key for the guitar, so
slap a capo on 3. Chords are relative to the capo. Timing is 4/4.
