Start Jamming...
[Em] [G] [Em] If you go away on a summer day
[B] Then [Am] you might as well take the sun away
[D] All the birds that flew in a summer sky
[G] When our love was new and our hearts were high
[C] When the day was [B] young and the night was long
[Em] And the moon [D] stood still [C#m] for the night [C] bird's song
If you go away, if you [B] go away, [Em] if you go away
But if you stay, [D] I'll [A] make you a day
[B] Like no day has been or [E] will be [Em] again
We'll sail on the sun, [D] we'll ride on the [A] rain
We'll [D] talk to the trees and worship [C] the [G] wind
[Em] But if you go, [F] understand
Leave me [B] just enough love to hold in [E] my hand
[G] If you go away, if [Am] you go away, [B] if you go away
Don't [E] leave me, [Em] you must forget
[A] Everything can be forgotten, who cares
[E] [D] Forget the time of misunderstandings [G] and wasted time
How can you know?
[C] Forget those hours [B] that sometimes killed
[E] Sometimes, at the cost of what?
[D] Of [C#] heart, of happiness
[C] Don't leave me, [B] don't leave me, don't [Em] leave me
[A] [Em] I, I'll offer you [D] [A] pearls of rain
From [B] countries where [E] it doesn't rain
I'll dig [Em] the earth [D] until after my [A] death
To [D] cover your body with gold and [G] light
[B] I'll make a dome [Em] where [F] there will be king
Where love [B] will be law and you [Em] will be queen
Don't [G] leave me, don't [Am] leave me, [B] don't leave me
[E] [B] [E] If you go away, [Em] as I know you must
[A] There'll be nothing left in this world to trust
[D] Just an empty room filled with empty space
[G] Like the empty look I see on your face
[C] Would have been the shadow [B] of your dog
If it [A] might have kept me [D] by [C#] your side
[C] If you go away, if [B] you go away, [Em] if you go [A] away
[Em] [N]
