#1.
G                  D        C
Never thought that I'd ever want to be leaving
Dm    G
you..(ooo)
C          Am                G
You're the dearest girl I've known and there's
F              G         C
nothing that I own, that I wouldn't want to

give to you.

#2.
G             F
But late last night after we kissed goodnight
    C                       F
and I started home..I met a girl so sweet and
              C
beautiful and very alone.
           F
And then I gazed into her eyes and knew how much

she wanted me and her lips were just as soft as
      A  C    D
could be-eeee-eeee.

BRIDGE:
G         F  D                Em        C
Goodnight my love..bless your heart and sleep tight
   D    Am       G
my looooove..goodnight.

#3.
G                     D         C
No tears that I could cry would justify my hurting
F              C                    Am
yoooou..and my words would sound so cheap..
                 G                     C
if I said that I meant to keep all the promises I
        G
made to you.
           F                                 C
I tried to tell her that I loved you but she just

didn't care.
           F                                   Am
And in the dark of night she pulled the ribbon out

of her hair.
C             F
And there was nothing in the world that could have

made me let her go, girl, I'm sorry but I just love
    A        D
her so..ohhh-ohhhhh.

BRIDGE:
G         F  D     G         F  D     Bb          Ab
Goodnight my love..goodnight my love..sleep tight my
F
love.

        B               Abm7            Db
It's so hard to say goodbye to you, the words they
            Ab
don't sound right.
         Dbm             Bm             Db
So, I'll say the words I always used to say, when I held
       Eb
you so tight.

OUTRO:
Ab        Gb Eb                         Ab        Gb Eb
Goodnight my love..(goodnight my love)..goodnight my love..
                       Ab        Gb Eb
(sleep tight my love)..goodnight my love..(Fade.)
