[Intro]
G C/G G C/G

[Chorus]
G                C           G
Don't send me no distant salutations
              C         G/B  Am
Or silly souvenirs from far away
          D                            D7
And don't leave me alone in the twilight
       D        C      G/B       D/A     G
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time of day

[Verse]
G           C   G/B Em
Over by the wildwood where young lovers go
Am                           D
Sparks flashing in the night, true colors show
G           C       G/B  Em
If I had my way I'd never get the urge to roam
      Am                                  D
But a young man serves his country and an old man guards the home

[Chorus]
      G           C              G
Don't put me in a frame upon the mantel
                    C     G/B     Am
'Fore memories turn dusty old and gray
          D                            D7
And don't leave me alone in the twilight
       D        C      G/B       D/A     G
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time of day

C    G/B   D/A       Em
Mmmm mmmmm hmmmm hmm hmmmmm
C    G/B   D/A       G
Mmmm mmmmm hmmmm hmm hmmmmm

[Verse]
G                C         G/B Em
I could face the darkness, oh storms in the skies
Am                           D
But we all got certain trials burnin' up inside
G        C        G/B Em
You only hurt yourself you don't know what you're doing
Am                         D
Tryin' to make it all alone who you think you're fooling

[Chorus]
      G       C               G
Don't hand me nothing I can't hold
                C       G/B   Am
Or nothing that I can't give away
          D                            D7
And don't leave me alone in the twilight
       D        C      G/B       D/A     G
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time of day

C    G/B   D/A       Em
Mmmm mmmmm hmmmm hmm hmmmmm
C    G/B   D/A       G
Mmmm mmmmm hmmmm hmm hmmmmm
C    G/B   D/A       Em
Mmmm mmmmm hmmmm hmm hmmmmm
C    G/B   D/A       G
