**Notes on the outro** 
In the outro, I have written the right hand notes and then the corresponding
left hand notes. The first two lines you play together, and the last two 
lines you play together. Just note that the rhythm for the right hand notes 
are the same as the melody of the song. You can just play the chords listed 
in the left hand if the right hand is too hard for you :)


Music of the Night
Phantom of the Opera

Intro:  C#5 , Ab5 (x2)

  C#5     Ab5      F#5           Ab5
Night time sharpens, heightens each sensation
  C#5     Ab5     F#5       Ab5
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
  F#5         C#5      F#5          C#5   
Silently the senses abandon their defenses
  F#5         B5         F#5       C#5
Helpless to resist the notes I write
  Eb5              Ab5    Ab5        C#5
For I compose the music of the night

  C#5     Ab5      F#5           Ab5
Slowly, gently night unfurls its splendor
  C#5     Ab5      F#5           Ab5
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
  F#5            C#5          F#5           C#5
Turn your face away from the garish light of day
           F#5                 B5     F#5        C#5
Turn your thoughts away from cold unfeeling light
     Eb5           Ab5    Ab5      C#5
And listen to the music of the night

            B5                          E5
Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams
            A5                              Eb5
Purge your thoughts of the life you knew before
            Ab5              F#5          C#5
Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar
           F5              C5           F5
And you'll live as you've never lived before

  C#5     Ab5      F#5           Ab5
Softly, deftly, music shall caress you
  C#5      Ab5    F#5        Ab5
Hear it, feel it secretly possess you
  F#5         C#5           F#5         C#5
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind
        F#5                B5        F#5     C#5
In this darkness that you know you cannot fight
    Eb5              Ab5   Ab5    C#5
The darkness of the music of the night

          B5                         E5
Let your mind start a journey to a strange new world
           A5                               Eb5
Leave all thoughts of the life you knew before
          Ab5             F#5           C#5
Let your soul take you where you long to be
      F5       C5            F5  
Only then can you belong to me

  C#5       Ab5   F#5       Ab5
Floating, falling, sweet intoxication
  C#5       Ab5      F#5        Ab5
Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation
  F#5           C#5           F#5             C#5
Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in
        F#5           B5     F#5      C#5
To the power of the music that I write
     Eb5           Ab5      Ab5     
The power of the music of the night
