Words and music Bob Dylan (from Planet Waves (1974) and
Biograph (1985))
Tabbed by Eyolf Østrem
Capo 1st fret (original key F major, which is of course playable, but I prefer the capoed version because of the Am/F# chord)
(E A E)
E
On a night like this
B
So glad you came around,
Hold on to me so tight
E
And heat up some coffee grounds.
E7/g#
We got much to talk about
A Am/f#
And much to reminisce,
E
It sure is right
B E
On a night like this.
On a night like this
So glad you've come to stay
Hold on to me, pretty miss
Say you'll never go away to stray.
Run your fingers down my spine
Bring me a touch of bliss
It sure feels right
On a night like this.
On a night like this
I can't get any sleep,
The air is so cold outside
And the snow's so deep.
Build a fire, throw on logs
And listen to it hiss
And let it burn, burn, burn, burn
On a night like this.
A
Put your body next to mine
E
And keep me company,
F#
There is plenty a room for all,
B
So please don't elbow me.
E
Let the four winds blow
Around this old cabin door,
If I'm not too far off
I think we did this once before.
There's more frost on the window glass
With each new tender kiss,
But it sure feels right
On a night like this.
