Miss You Nights
D - Bm - G - D - Bm - G ? A
A D Bm
I've had many times, I can tell you,
G D Bm G A
times when innocence I'd trade for compa n........y.
D Bm
And children saw me crying,
G D A A7
I thought I?d had my share of that.
G A D A
But these Miss You Nights are the longest
D Bm
Midnight diamonds stud my heaven,
[c/ch D Bm
G ] southward burning lie the jewels
G A
that eye your pla?ce.
D Bm
And warm winds that embrace me,
G D A A7
just as surely kissed your face.
G A D A
Yeah, these Miss You Nights they're the longest
D
How I missed you,
Fm G
how I missed you, I'm not likely to tell,
D
I'm a man,
Bm G A
and cold daylight buys the pride I'd rather sell.
D
All my secrets,
Fm G Em
all my secrets are a wasted affair,
G D G
you know them well
D Bm
Thinking of my going,
G D Bm G
how to cut the thread and leave it all behind
A
Looking windwards,
D Bm
for my compass,
G D A7
I take each day as it A arrives
G A D D7
But these Miss You Nights are the longest.
G A Fm Bm
Lay down all thoughts of your surrender,
G A
it's only me who's killing time.
G A Fm Bm
Play down all dreams and themes once remembered,
G A A7
it's just the same, this miss you game
G A D D7
and these Miss You Nights are the longest.
