Title: Nights In White Satin
Transcribed by: Paul R Handley

Strum slowly in 3/4 time (I suggest you listen to the original
recording first to get the pattern).
I have arranged verse/chorus differently from Moodies
in that I play verse1:verse2:chorus and then a full repeat.
Also verse 1 is an octave lower then normal - I think it gives
a nice feel - you can always play it as verse 2 if you don't agree.
