[E] [C7] [C#7] [F#7/E]
Southern Nights, have you ever felt the southern night?

Free as a breeze, not to mention the trees, whistling
[G#m/D#] [B7/F#]
tunes that you know and love so.
[E] [C7] [C#7] [F#7/E]
Southern Nights, just as good even when closed your eyes.
[Amaj7] [G#m/D#]
I apologize, to any one who can truly say
[B7/F#]
that he has found a better way.

Every flower touched his cold hand.
