Am         C                F       E7             Am      C     F
When the night winds softly blow    through my open window

E7                Am         C     F     F     E7      E7
then I start to remember     the girl that brought me joy

Am         C               F       E7         Am      C     F
Now the night winds softly blow    sadness to tomorrow

                  E7       Am   C
bringing tears to eyes so tired

F       F       E7     E7
Eyes I thought could cry no more


Chorus:

A      Cm#            Bm7       Bm7              D
If the day would only come then you might just appear

       Cm#                 Bm       Bm               A
even though you'd soon be gone when I reached out my hand

A          A       E     Bm7       Bm7
If I could see you (ooohh ooooh)

   Bm7          A        E    Bm7
If only I could see you ooooh ooooh

Bm7               A      D    Cm# Bm
To see if you are laughing    or  crying

A        D     Bm    Bm     A
When the night winds softly blow

In my dark and whispering room
Memories still bring me a numbness to my feelings
Take my hand and brush my brow
In the warm and fevered dark
Heart is madly beating
My crazy thoughts are burning
When the night winds softly blow

If the day would only come
Then you might just appear even though you'd soon be gone
When I reached out my hand
If I could see you
If only I could see you
To see if you are laughing or crying
When the night winds softly blow
