Tone [Am]
Capo on 2nd fret
1. If you [Am] go away on this summer day
Then you [Dm] might as well take the sun away
All the [G7] birds that flew in the summer sky
When our [C9] love was [C] new and our [C9] hearts were [C] high
When the day was [Dm6] young and the night was [E7] long
And the [Am] moon stood still for the night bird's song
If you [Dm7] go away, if you [E7] go away, if you [Am] go away
Chorus 1: But if you [Am7] stay, I'll make you a [Am6] day (night)
Like no day has [E7] been, or will be a-[Am] gain
We'll sail the [Am7] sun, we'll ride on the [Am6] rain
We'll talk to the [G7] trees and worship the [C] wind
Then [E7] if you [Am] go, I'll under-[Bb] stand
Leave me just enough [Dm6] love to [E7] fill up my [Am] hand
If you [C] go away, if you [Dm] go away, if you go [E7] away [D6] [E7]
2. If you [Am] go away as I know you will
You must [Dm] tell the world to stop turning
'til you re-[G7] turn again if you ever do
For what [C] good is love without loving you?
Can I [Dm6] tell you now as you turn to [E7] go
I'll be [Am] dying slowly 'til the next hello
If you [Dm7] go away If you [E7] go away If you [Am] go away
Chorus 2: But if you [Am7] stay, I'll make you a [Am6] day (night)
Like no day has [E7] been, or will be a-[Am] gain
We'll sail your [Am7] smile, we'll ride on the [Am6] touch
We'll talk to your [G7] eyes and I love so [C] much
But [E7] if you [Am] go, I won’t [Bb] cry
Though the [Dm6] good is gone from the [E7] world good [Am] bye
If you [C] go away, if you [Dm] go away, if you go [E7] away [D6] [E7]
3. If you [Am] go was i know you must
There'll be [Dm] nothing left In the world to trust
Just an empty [G7] room Full of empty space
Like the [C] empty look I see on your face
I’d have [Dm6] been your shadow if I though it [E7] might
Have [Am] kept me here, by your side
If you [C] go away, if you [Dm] go away, [E7] Please don’t [Am] go away
