NIGHTWALKER

Friends, my objective here and with all the Vannelli charts
I have submitted is to have posted an accurate transcription
of his music for all of us to enjoy. If anyone feels they have a
better chord, note, passage, lyric--please feel
free to contact me at the Email address below,
and the necessary changes will be made! Since I am
a member of this site, it is possible for me to edit
 any of these charts.

small case letters above chord symbols
indicate individual notes:
c4: middle C, and notes above in that octave...
c5: C above middle C
c3: C below middle C  etc.
numbers behind notes will only be indicated
when notes enter another octave or begin a new line

I           sleep at night

like a cloud high     on the    horizon

and when i close my eyes

    F#7sus4/C#      F#7sus4 F#7     Bm7        Abm7-5
 my soul        is struck        by lightnening
