  D MajorD           E minorEm     D MajorD      E minorEm
It seems that loving is a game that I can't win
  D MajorD       E minorEm        D MajorD   E minorEm
No sooner are you here than gone again
     B minorBm      A augmentedA
Is there nothing I can say

Alone with you is all I long to be
    A augmentedA          D MajorD
Will you stay awhile with me

  D MajorD       E minorEm      D MajorD    E minorEm
I've often gazed into my crystal ball
  D MajorD       E minorEm       D MajorD   E minorEm
To find out if you think of me at all
    B minorBm        A augmentedA
But there's no reason why
  B minorBm       G+G
You should even try
                      G+G

  A augmentedA          D MajorD
If you stay awhile with me

Stay awhile with me

That's all I'm asking you to do


Verse:

  D MajorD        E minorEm      G+G   D MajorD E MajorE
I see you in the street lamp's rusty gleam
  D MajorD        E minorEm     G+G  D MajorD E MajorE
It casts a magic spell as in a dream
 B minorBm         A augmentedA
The night is growing old
 B minorBm        G+G
Come in from the cold
             F#F#    G+G
I'll lock the door and throw away the key
  A augmentedA          D MajorD
If you stay awhile with me


Outro:
G+G D MajorD E minorEm
