[Verse 1]
Dm
If you go away
On this summer's day
Gm
Then you might as well
Take the sun away
C
All the birds that flew
In the summer sky
F
When our love was new
And our hearts were high
Gm
And the days were long
A
And the nights were young
Dm
And the moon stood still
For the night bird's song
Gm
If you go away
A
If you go away
Dm
If you go away
[Chorus 1]
Dm
But if you stay
F
I'll make you a day
A
Like no day has been
Dm
Or will be again
Dm
We'll sail on the sun
F
We'll ride on the rain
C
And talk to the trees
A
And worship the wind
Dm
But if you go
Gm
I'll understand
A Dm
Give me just enough love to fill up my hands
Gm
If you go away
A
If you go away
Dm
If you go away
[Verse 2]
Dm
If you go away
As I know you will
Gm
You must tell the world
To stop turning
C
'Till you return again
If you ever do
F
For what good is love
Without loving you
Gm
Can I tell you now
A
As you turn to go
Dm
I'll be dying slowly
'Till the next hello
Gm
If you go away
A
If you go away
Dm
If you go away
[Chorus 2]
Dm
But if you stay
F
I'll make you a night
A
Like no night has been
Dm
Or will be again
Dm
I'll sail on your smile
F
I'll ride on your touch
C
I'll talk to your eyes
A
That I love so much
Dm
But if you go
Gm
I will cry
A
For the good is gone
Dm
From the word goodbye
Gm
If you go away
A
If you go away
Dm
If you go away
[Verse 3]
Dm
If you go away
As I know you must
Gm
There'd be nothing left
In this world to trust
C
Just an empty room
Full of empty space
F
Like the empty look
I see on your face
Gm
But I've been in the shadow
A
Of your shadow
Dm
If you might've kept me
By your side
Gm
If you go away
A
If you go away
Dm
If you go away
