The Moody Blues - Nights In White Satin piano tab

Je score:

Nights In White Satin
( From the Album 'Days Of Future Passed' )
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

..of note: the Dadd9 chord that appears throughout sounds better
 if the D note is omitted in the chord( but of course played in the bass )
 in other words-albeit rather long-windedly--played as a F#m7(no5)over a D bass

And we decide which is right

And which is an illusion
