MISS YOU NIGHTS: CLIFF RICHARD - 1976 (D. Townsend) 4/4 - 74 | |: Measure of 4-Counts / : Break n.c. : No Chord ( ): Backing Vocals / INTRO: |F9 F |F9 Dm |Bb F |Dm Bb C VERSE 1:
n.c.    |F9   F           |F9   Dm   |
I've had many times, I can tell you,

Bb            F
   times when innocence,

   |Dm             Bb  C
I'd trade for compan - y.

   |F9    F         |F9  Dm   |
And child-ren saw me cry-ing,

Bb               F              |C   C7
   I thought I'd had my share of that.

         |Bb             |
But these miss you nights,

Csus4  C7        |F      |C
          are the longest.
VERSE 2:
        |F9  F             |F9  Dm   |
Midnight dia-monds, stud my hea-ven,

Bb           F
   southward burning,

       |Dm                   Bb    C
lie the jewels that eye your pla - ce.

   |F9   F             |F9   Dm   |
And warm winds, that em-brace me,

Bb         F                 |C   C7
   just as surely kissed your face.

          |Bb             |
Yeah these miss you nights,

Csus4  C7            |F      |C
          they're the longest.
CHORUS 1:
      |F
(How I missed you),

      Dm                 |Bb
how I missed you, I'm not likely to tell.

     |F        Dm
I'm a man, and cold daylight,

        |Bb               C
buys the pride I'd rather sell.

       |F
(All my secrets),

       Dm            |Bb        Dm  |
all my secrets, are a wasted af-fair,

Bb               F   |Bb  F  |
   you know them well.
VERSE 3:
F9    F        |F9 Dm   |
Think-ing of my go-ing,

Bb        F        
   how to cut the thread,

   |Dm             Gm  C
and leave it all behi-nd.

       |F9   F    |F9  Dm        |
Looking wind-ward, for my compass,

Bb             F           |C    C7
   I take each day as it ar-rives.

         |Bb             |
But these miss you nights,

C Csus4 C7        |F      |F7    |
           are the longest.
CHORUS 2:
 Bb             C                |
(Lay down), lay down all thoughts,

Am             Dm    |
   of your sur-render,

Gm                           |C    |
   it's only me who's killing time.

 Bb             C
(Lay down), lay down all dreams,

   |Am             Dm      |
and themes once re-membered.

Bb                   |C                   |
   it's just the same,  this miss you game.
