  • Em D Em D
    Nights in white satin never reaching the end
    C G F Em
  • Letters I've written never meaning to send
    Em D Em D
    Beauty I'd always missed with these eyes before
  • C G F Em
    Just what the truth is I can't say anymore
     
  • CHORUS
    A C
    Cause I love you, yes I love you
  • Em D Em D
    Ohhh how I love you
     
  •  
    Gazing at people, some hand in hand
    Just what I'm going through they can't understand
  • Some try to tell me thoughts they cannot defend
    Just what you want to be, you'll be in the end

  •  
    Gazing at people, some hand in hand.
    Just what I'm going through they can't understand.
  • Some try to tell me thoughts they cannot defend.
    Just what you want to be, you'll be in the end.

    I arranged the song in Am using barre chords to match the
    original chord centers:
  •  
    Am: 577555
    G: 355433
  • F: 133211
    C: 332010
    Bb: x13331 or 688766
  •  
    While NIWS is generally played with a strum (on solo
    guitar) to imitate the original sleepy sound of the Melotron,
  • the song can be rearranged slightly for a more delicate sound
    using arpegiated chords:
     
  • Am (barre 5):
    E||---------------------------|--|
    B||-------5-----------5-------|--|
  • G||-----5---5-------5---5-----|--|
    D||---7-------7---7-------7---|--| etc, etc
    A||-------------7-------------|--|
  • E||-5-------------------------|--|
