  			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 

        A               C 
Cause I love you, yes I love you 
           Em           D      Em       D 
Ohhh how I love you 
 
Em                D       Em                     D 
  Gazing at people, some hand in hand 
C              G          F                    Em 
  Just what I'm going through they can't understand 
Em           D            Em                    D 
  Some try to tell me thoughts they cannot defend 
C               G         F                  Em 
  Just what you want to be, you'll be in the end 
 
 
refrão 
       A               C 
And I love you, yes I love you 
           Em           D      Em       D 
Ohhh how I love you
