These Are The Nights


Capo IV http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zMSDF0JBoh0 , this is a tab of that cover, it is about 90% of the song, leaving out the last bit, because the strumming pattern used throughout the song does not make sense on the last part, The strumming pattern is simply DDUDU, its quite fast strumming, listen to the acoustic version and you will be able to easily follow along. The chords have you anchored for the most part, excluding D, if you listen to the video, you will also understand the transitions which varies from the strumming pattern but its hard to explain, watching the video will help immensely. Capo IV G Our bodies to hand with the Jersey shoreline Dsus4 Connecting the tide to the sand that was dry Em9 And we both laid entwined, stared at the night C9 Clouds overhead, but that was all right 'cause G Then and there with the wind in your hair Dsus4 Heaven was jealous to merely look fair against Em9 You and all I need now is for this C9 moon to keep light in its desolate skyline for good Em9-G2-C9 Cause G These are the nights that you know when you’re there Dsus4 You couldn’t have planned it much better I swear and you Em9 C9 Hope that your senses aren’t failing you now G And you think to yourself now I could be wrong Dsus4 But I might have just stolen this scene from a song and you Em9 C9 know that your senses aren’t failing you now, but they’re slipping away Em9-G2-C9-(D-D2 2nd time only ) x2 G So divine is this happening Dsus4 Can’t I just graze your skin Em9 For the rest of our time C9 But time isn’t letting this night go on G Till then and there, the wind in your hair Dsus4 Nothing in this world could keep me from staring at Em9 You and all I need now is for that C9 sun to stay under its glowing horizon for good. Em9-G2-C9 G ‘Cause these are the nights that you know when you’re there Dsus4 You couldn’t have planned it much better I swear and you Em9 Hope that your senses aren’t failing C9 you now G And you think to yourself now I could be wrong Dsus4 But I might have just stolen this scene from a song and you Em9 Know that your senses aren’t failing C9 you now G-G2-G (quickly changing) but they’re slipping away watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zMSDF0JBoh0 if your confused
