[Gm] [C]
[F] Back in the [Bb] 60s, there was a [E]
[A] little show called [D]
Jacques Brel [Bm] is [G]
[Db] [Gbm] [B]
[Em] alive and well [G] and living in Paris.
[Eb] So you remember it?
[Gm] Is that right?
[F] [C] Played [Fm] on Bleaker Street at the Village [G] Gate.
[Eb]
[Bb] I love Jacques [Gbm] Brel's music.
In fact, I [Ab] actually flew to [Db] Marseilles, [D] France with my friend, [F] Cis Corman, [G] and our husbands
at the time.
[F]
[E] Because [F] I loved his song, Ne me [G] quitte pas, and he didn't sing [Gbm] it.
[Dm]
[F] And actually, [Gm] that [Cm] stayed with me because I find when I sing the same songs over and
over again like [D] people and blah, blah, blah, [Gm] I get so bored.
[D] [C] But I [D] always remember the [C] feeling I had, [Dm] the disappointment I had when he [Bb] didn't sing that song.
So I [N] sing those songs like people.
[Eb] This
[D] [Gm] one's very special.
[A] [Eb]
[D] [Bb] [G]
If you go away [Gm]
on this summer day, then you might as well [Cm]
take the sun away, all [F] the birds
that flew [Gm] in [F] the summer sky.
[Bb] When our love was new [Cm] and [Bb] our hearts were high, when [A] the day was young and the night
[Gbm] was [D] long, [Gm] and the moon stood still for the night bird song.
If [Eb] you go away, if you go [D] away, [G] if you go [Gm] away.
But if you stay, I'll make you [C] a day.
[D] No day has been or will [Gm] be again.
[D] We'll sail [Gm] on the sun, we'll ride on [C] the rain, we'll climb to [F] the trees and [Bb] worship the [Am] wind.
[D]
Then [Gm] if you go, I'll [Fm] understand.
Leave me just [Eb] enough love [A] to hold in [Gm] my hand.
If you [Bb] go, if you [Cm] go away, if you [D] go away.
Ne me [G] quitte pas, il faut [Gm] oublier, tout [Cm] peut s'oublier, qui s'enfuit déjà.
[F] Oublier le temps des [Eb]
malentendus [Bb] et le temps perdu, à savoir comment.
[Am]
Oublier ces heures qui touent [D] parfois, à [G] cause de peu, quoi, [Bb] le que de bonheur.
[Eb] Ne me quitte pas, ne me [Gb] quitte pas, [Gm] ne me quitte pas, ne me quitte pas.
But if you stay, I'll make [C] you a [Gm] night.
Like [D]
night has been [A] or will be [Gm] again.
[Dm] I'll sail [Gm] on your smile, I'll ride [E] on your church.
I'll [F] talk to your eyes that I [Bb] love [Am] so [D] much.
Then [Gm] if you go, I'll [Fm] understand.
Leave me just [Eb] enough [C] to [Gm] hold in my hand.
And if you [Bb] go away, if you [Cm] go away, if you go [D] away.
As [Gm]
I know [C] you must, [Gm]
there'll [C] be [Gm] nothing left [Cm] in [Eb] this world [Bb] to trust.
[Cm] Just [F] an empty room [Gm] full of [F] empty space.
Like [Bb] the empty look I see on your face.
I [A] would have [Cm] been the shadow of your [Eb] shadow, if it [Gm] might have kept me by [Bb] your side.
If [Eb] you go away, if you [D] go away, please don't [E] [Eb]
go away.
[D] [Bb] [G]
[Gm] [G]

NotesBeta

To learn Barbra Streisand - (Ne Me Quitte Pas, Live at Village Vanguard, NYC - September 26, 2009) If You Go Away chords, your practice should emphasize these chord progressions: Bb, Cm, F, Gm, F, D, Gm and C. I suggest starting at a calm pace of 73 BPM, and as you gain confidence, approach the song's BPM of 146. With G Minor as the song's key, tweak the capo to cater to your vocal pitch and chord likes.
