Em D Em D Em
Oh, how I love you..oh, how I love you.
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
***(The other verses.)
Breathe deep the gathering gloom.
Watch lights fade from every room.
Bedsitter people look back and lament.
Another day's useless, energy spent.
Impassioned lovers, wrestle as one.
Lonely man cries for love..and has none.
New mother picks up and suckles her son.
Senior citizens, wish they were young.
Cold hearted orb, that rules the night.
Removes the colours, from our sight.
Red is gray and yellow, white.
But we decide, which is right..
and which is an illusion.

version 5
Tuning: E A D G B E
Key: Em
Em = 022000 F = 133211 Asus4 = x02230
Dsus2 = xx0230 Dsus4 = xx0233 C * = x32013
C = x32010 D = xx0232 Em * = 022003
G = 320033 A = x02220 B = x24442
Am = x02210
x = Mute all strings and strum
The D - Dsus4 - D - Dsus2 riff, and the asterixed chords
are to simulate a little of what the mellotron is playing,
to add a little bit more interest on a single guitar.

Am G Am
=============================================================
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-------------|--|

Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I've written
Never meaning to send
Beauty I'd always missed
With these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can't say any more
'Cause I love you
Yes I love you
Oh 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 will be in the end
And I love you
Yes I love you
Oh how I love you
Oh how I love you
Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end

Oh how I love you
Oh how I love you
'Cause I love you

Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I've written
Never meaning to send
Beauty I'd always missed
With these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can't say any more
'Cause I love you
Yes I love you
Oh 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 will be in the end
And I love you
Yes I love you
Oh how I love you
Oh how I love you
Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I've written
Never meaning to send
Beauty I've always missed
With these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can't say any more
'Cause I love you
Yes I love you
Oh how I love you
Oh how I love you
'Cause I love you
Yes I love you
Oh how I love you
Oh how I love you
