(Original Key: FF)


Intro:

(Spoken):

DmDm
 You ever,
Want something,
Am7Am7
 That you know,
You shouldn't have?
DmDm
 The more you,
Know you,
Shouldn't have it;
The more,
You want it.
And then one day;
Am7Am7
 You get it,
DmDm
 It's so,
Good to you.

DmDm
 But it's just,
Like my girl,
Am7Am7
 When she's,
Around me,
DmDm
 I just feel,
So good,
So good.
But right now,
      Am7Am7
I just feel cold,
So cold,
Right down,
DmDm
 To my bones,
  (n.c)
'Cos ooh...

Verse 1:

 Ain't no sunshine,
      DmDm  A minorAm c
When she's gone,
DmDm    A minorAm
 It's not warm,
c       DmDm  A minorAm c
 When she's a-way.

DmDm    A minorAm
 Ain't no sunshine,
c      Am7Am7
 When she's gone,
And she's always,
     G minorGm
Gone too long,
Anytime she,
    DmDm  A minorAm c, DmDm (n.c)
Goes a-way.

Verse 2:

c
 Wonder this time,
      DmDm  A minorAm c
Where she's gone,
DmDm   A minorAm
 Wonder if she's,
c    DmDm  A minorAm c
 Gone to stay.

DmDm    A minorAm
 Ain't no sunshine,
c      Am7Am7
 When she's gone,
And this house,
       G minorGm
Just ain't no home,
Anytime she,
    DmDm  A minorAm c, DmDm (n.c)
Goes a-way.

Break:

DmDm (n.c)
 I know, I know,
I know, I know,
G minorGm (n.c)
 I know, know,
Know, know, know,
DmDm (n.c)
 I know, I know.
Hey I ought,
  G minorGm
To leave,
I ought to,
      A7A7
Leave her a-lone;
Ain't no sunshine,
      DmDm  A minorAm c
When she's gone.

Verse 3:

DmDm    A minorAm
 Ain't no sunshine,
c      DmDm  A minorAm c
 When she's gone,
DmDm  A minorAm
 Only darkness,
c   DmDm  A minorAm c
 Every day.

DmDm    A minorAm
 Ain't no sunshine,
c      Am7Am7
 When she's gone,
And this house just,
     G minorGm
Ain't no home,
Anytime she,
    DmDm  A minorAm c, DmDm (n.c)
Goes a-way.
