Music Of The Night

	  		
Intro:  C   F   Dm   G, C   F   Dm   G... 

V1.  
C      G     Dm    G    C         F        Dm G 
Night-time, sharp-ens, heightens each sen-sa-tion, 
C    G     Dm     G    C         F   Dm  G 
Dark-ness, wakes, and, sturs ima-gin-a – tion. 
Am C          Dm C    Am C            Dm  C 
Si-lently the senses abandon their de-fences, 
Am            Bb        F       G 
Helpless to resist, the notes I write, 
    C Dm      C   F  G  C  Dm  C      
For I compose the music of the night. 

V2. 
C   G   Dm  G   C              F    Dm   G 
Slowly, gently, night un-furrs it’s splendour, 
C     G   Dm    G   C         F   Dm G 
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender. 
F            Dm  F               Dm C 
Hearing is believing, music is deceiving, 
Am      F     C     Bb      F      C 
Hard as lightening, soft as candle light, 
Dm             C   F  G  C  Dm  C 
Dare you trust the music of the night, 

          Bb                           D# 
Close you eyes for your eyes will only tell the truth, 
        G#                   D       D7 
And the truth isn’t what you want to see. 
G                 G7         G 
In the dark it is easy to pretend, 
C                      B7  C     A7 C    
But the truth, is what it aught, to be. 


V3 
    G   Dm  G   C           F  Dm  G 
Softly, deftly, music shall caress you, 
C    G   Dm   G   F            Dm  G 
Hear it, feel it, secretly possess you. 
F            C              F           C 
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind, 
        F   C              Bb       F      C 
In this darkness which you know you cannot fight, 
    F           C   F G   C  Dm  C 
The darkness of the music of the night. 

          Bb                             D# 
Close you eyes start a journey through a strange new world, 
          G#                         D       D7 
Leave all thoughts, of the world you knew before. 
G                           G7            G 
Close your eyes and let the music set you free, 
C                  B7 C     A7 C 
Only then, can you be-long, to me. 


V4. 
    G     Dm  G    C         F  Dm G 
Floating, falling, sweet intoxi-ca-tion, 
C         G         F             Dm G 
Touch me, trust me, savor each sensa=tion. 
F               C             F                C 
Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in, 
       F  C         Bb    F      C 
To the power of the music that I write, 
    F        C   F G   C  Dm  C  
The power of the music of the night.
