Ain't No Sunshine

Aint No Sunshine was written by Bill Withers about the painful experience of a young love ending. The lyrics reflect the feeling of loss and longing. Withers was inspired by a movie he was watching, and the theme of romantic disappointment. He didn’t expect the song to be a hit and was surprised by the huge impact it made.

                                                                  Am7              Em7    G  
Ain' t no sunshine when she' s gone
Am7                                                                              Em7    G  
        It' s not warm when she' s away
Am7                                                                              Em7  
        Ain' t no sunshine when she' s gone
                                                                        Dm7  
And she' s always gone too long
                                                  Am7    Em7    G    Am7  
Anytime she goes away
                                                                  Am7            Em7    G  
Wonder this time where she' s gone
Am7                                                                            Em7    G  
        Wonder if she' s gone to stay
Am7                                                                              Em7  
        Ain' t no sunshine when she' s gone
                                                                                Dm7  
And this house just ain' t no home
                                                  Am7    Em7    G    Am7  
Anytime she goes away
And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
                                                                             Am7            Em7    G  
But ain' t no sunshine when she' s gone
Am7                                                                                         Em7    G  
        Ain' t no sunshine when she' s gone
Am7                                                            Em7  G  
        Only darkness everyday
Am7                                                                              Em7  
        Ain' t no sunshine when she' s gone
                                                                                Dm7  
And this house just ain' t no home
                                                  Am7    Em7    G  
Anytime she goes away
Am7                                                      Em7    G  
        Anytime she goes away
Am7                                                      Em7    G    Am7  
        Anytime she goes away
