Intro: Dm6E7AmCDmDm6E7D6E7Am
If you go away on this summer day
Dm
Then you might as well take the sun away
G7
All the birds that flew in the summer sky
C9CC9C
When our love was new and our hearts were high
Dm6E7
When the day was young and the night was long
Am
And the moon stood still for the nightbird's song
Dm7E7Dm6Am
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away
Am7Am6
But if you stay, I'll make you a day
E7/9- Am
Like no day has been or will be again
Am7Am6
We'll sail on the sun, we'll ride on the rain
G7C
We'll talk to the trees and worship the wind.
E7AmBb
Then if you go, I'll understand,
Dm6E7Am
Leave me just enough love to fill up my hand
CDmDm6E7D6E7
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away
Am
If you go away, as I know you will
DmDm7+
You must tell the world to stop turning til
G7
You return again, if you ever do,
C
For what good is love without loving you
Dm6E7
Can I tell you now, as you turn to go
Am
I'll be dying slow til your next hello
Dm7E7Dm6Am
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away
Am7Am6
But if you stay, I'll make you a night
E7/9- Am
Like no night has been, or will be again
Am7Am6
I'll sail on your smile, I'll ride on your touch
G7C
I'll talk to your eyes that I love so much
E7AmBb
But if you go, no, I won't cry
Dm6E7Am
Though the good is gone from the word goodbye
CDmDm6E7D6E7
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away
Am
If you go away, as I know you must,
Dm
There'll be nothing left in the world to trust
G7
Just an empty room, full of empty space
C
Like the empty look I see on your face
Dm6E7
I'd have been your shadow if I thought it might
Am
Have kept me here, by your side
CDmE7/9- Am
If you go away, if you go away please don't go away
