Andrew Lloyd Webber - Music Of The Night Chords

Music of the Night
 From Phantom of the Opera
(For all of those who play piano also and hate transposing.) 

C#         Ab         C#              Ab
Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation
C#        Ab         F#           Ab
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
F#            C#       F#              C#
Silently the senses abandon their defences

F# B F# C# Ebm Fm

C#       Ab       C#                 Ab
Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendour
C#         Ab         F#             Ab
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
F#              C#             F#               C#
Turn your face away from the garish light of day
          F#              B    F#         C#
Turn your face away from cold, unfeeling light
F#                 Ab7           C#
And listen to the music of the night

B                                   E
Close you eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams
          A                             Eb     Eb7
Purge all thoughts of the world you knew before
           Ab              Ab7              C#
Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar
           Fm             C           F
And you'll live as you've never lived before

C#         Ab         C#              Ab
Softly, deftly, music shall caress you
C#        Ab         F#           Ab
Hear it, feel it, secretly possess you
F#            C#       F#              C#
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind
        F#                  B       F#      C#
In this darkness which you know you cannot fight
    F#               Ab7           C#
The darkness of the music of the night

         B                             E
Let your mind start a journey through a strange, new world
          A                             Eb
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before
         
Ab            Ab7                C#
Let your soul take you where you long to be
     Fm       C             Fm              A
Only then can you belong to me

C#         Ab        C#     Ab
Floating, falling, sweet intoxication
C#         Ab         F#           Ab
Touch me, trust me, savour each sensation
F#             C#               F#           C#
Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in
       F#            B    F#      C#
To the power of the music that I write
F#                Ab7           C#
The power of the music of the night

Ab C# Ab C# Ab F# Ab7 F# D F# C#

F#             B      F#         C#
You alone can make my song take flight
F#                Ab7           F#     C#m Cm C C#
Help me make the music of the night
