Am         C                F       E7             Am      C     F 
When the night winds softly blow    through my open window 
 
E7                Am         C     F     F     E7      E7 
then I start to remember     the girl that brought me joy 
 
Am         C               F       E7         Am      C     F 
Now the night winds softly blow    sadness to tomorrow 
 
                  E7       Am   C 
bringing tears to eyes so tired 
 
F       F       E7     E7 
Eyes I thought could cry no more 
 
 
Chorus: 
 
A      C#m            Bm7       Bm7              D 
If the day would only come then you might just appear 
 
       C#m                 Bm       Bm               A 
even though you'd soon be gone when I reached out my hand 
 
A          A       E     Bm7       Bm7 
If I could see you (ooohh ooooh) 
 
   Bm7          A        E    Bm7 
If only I could see you ooooh ooooh 
 
Bm7               A      D    C#m Bm 
To see if you are laughing    or  crying 
 
A        D     Bm    Bm     A 
When the night winds softly blow 
 
In my dark and whispering room 
Memories still bring me a numbness to my feelings 
Take my hand and brush my brow 
In the warm and fevered dark 
Heart is madly beating 
My crazy thoughts are burning 
When the night winds softly blow 
 
If the day would only come 
Then you might just appear even though you'd soon be gone 
When I reached out my hand 
If I could see you 
If only I could see you 
To see if you are laughing or crying 
When the night winds softly blow
