G            C9       D
  I know you loved him
               G  D11/F#
  A long time ago
Em7/B         C9
  Even now in my arms
D                    G
  You still want him I know
 G             C9
  But darling this time
 D                  G  D11/F#
  Let your memories die
Em7/B               C9   D
  When you hold me tonight
              G
  Don't close your eyes

  G            C9
  Don't close your eyes
         D
  Let it be me
                 G  D11/F#
  Don't pretend it's him
              Em7/B
  In some fantasy
               C9
  Darling just once
            D
  Let yesterday go
                   G  D11/F#
  You'll find more love
                   Em7/B
  Than you've ever known
               C9
  Just hold me tight
                      D
  When you love me tonight
                   G
  And don't close your eyes

G              C9
  Maybe I've been a fool
 D                   G  D11/F#
  Holding on all this time
Em7/B            C9
  Lyin' here in your arms
 D                  G
  Knowing he's in your mind
 G                  C9
  But I keep hoping some day
 D                     G  D11/F#
  That you'll see the light
Em7/B           C9
  Let it be me tonight
 D               G
  Don't close your eyes

              C9
  Don't close your eyes
          D
  Let it be me
                     G  D11/F#
  Don't pretend it's him
                Em7/B
  In some fantasy
              C9
  Darling just once
             D
  Let yesterday go
                   G  D11/F#
  You'll find more love
                    Em7/B
  Than you've ever known
                C9
  Just hold me tight
                      D
  When you love me tonight
                   G  C9  G
  And don't close your eyes
