[Gm]
I'm imagining a lot of happy people and [A] [G] most of you are with someone you love.
Well, you are the lucky ones.
All over the world there are lots of people who are alone tonight.
I imagine most of us have been in that situation at some time or another.
I know I have.
Recently I heard a most beautiful song with a dynamic lyric that really expresses this feeling of loneliness.
It means a lot to me personally and I'd like to share it with you.
I think you'll see what I mean.
[D] [G] Take the ribbon from my hair
Shake it loose and let [C] it fall
[G]
[C] Laying soft [A] against [D] your skin
Like the shadows [G] on the wall
Come and lay [A] down [G] by my side
Till the early [Em] morning light
[C]
All I'm taking is [D] your [G] time
Help [D]
me make it [G] through the night
I [Am] don't care [Bm] what's [C] right or wrong
[G] [C] And [Bm] I want [Am] [G] to understand
Let the devil [A] take tomorrow
[Gbm] [A] Oh, [D]
[A] tonight I [D] need [G] a friend
[D] Yesterday is [G] dead and gone
And [C] tomorrow's out of sight
It's so sad to [D] be alone
Help me make it [G] through the night
[C]
Mmmmm
Lord, it's so [D] sad to be alone
Help me make it [Eb]
[C] through
[Eb] Lead me through
