[Verse 1]
[Am]                           [Am]     [Em] [Em/G] [Am]
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone.
[Am]                        [Am]        [Em] [Em/G] [Am]
It's not warm when she's away.
                             [Em]                              [Dm]
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone, and she's always gone too long,
                  [Am]      [Em] [Em/G] [Am]
Anytime she goes away.

[Verse 2]
[Am]                           [Am]     [Em] [Em/G] [Am]
Wonder this time where she's gone,
[Am]                      [Am]       [Em] [Em/G] [Am]
Wonder if she's gone to stay
                             [Em]                                 [Dm]
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone, and this house just ain't no home,
                  [Am]      [Em] [Em/G] [Am]
Anytime she goes away.

And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
[N.C.]
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
[N.C.]
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
[N.C.]
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
[N.C.]
Hey, I ought to leave the young thing alone

[Verse 3]
                                  [Am]      [Em] [Em/G] [Am]
But ain't no sunshine when she's gone
                                  [Am]      [Em] [Em/G] [Am]
But ain't no sunshine when she's gone
[Am]                  [Am]      [Em/G] [Am]
only darkness everyday.
                             [Em]                                 [Dm]
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone, and this house just ain't no home
                 [Am]      [Em] [Em/G] [Am]
Anytime she goes away.
                 [Am]      [Em] [Em/G] [Am]
Anytime she goes away.
                 [Am]      [Em] [Em/G] [Am]
Anytime she goes away.
                 [Am]      [Em] [Em/G] [Am]
Anytime she goes away.
