Miss you
nights

1. I've had many times, I can tell you,
G D Bm G - A
times when innocence I'd trade
for compan........y.
D Bm
And children saw me crying,
G D A - A7
I thought I’d had my share of
that.
G

D
- A
But these Miss You Nights are
the longest.

2.
G D Bm G - A
southward burning lie the jewels 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 F# G
How I missed you, how I missed
you, I'm not likely to tell,
D
Bm G A
I'm a man, and cold daylight
buys the pride I'd rather sell.
D F# G Em
All my secrets, all my secrets
are a wasted affair,
G D - G - D
you know them well.
D Bm
3. Thinking of my going,
G D Bm
G
how to cut the thread and
leave it all behind ?
A D
Bm
Looking windwards,
for my compass,
G D
A - A7
I take each day as it arrives.
G - A D - D7
But these Miss You Nights are the longest.
G A F#m Bm
Lay down all thoughts of your
surrender,
G A
it's only me who's killing
time.
G A F#m

Play down all dreams and
themes once remembered,
G - A A7
it's just the same, this miss you game.
