Stay Loose chords by Gordon Lightfoot

Gordon Lightfoot - Stay Loose


CAPO: 2nd Fret



INTRO:: G      Am    D  G

VERSE 1::

If you've got a heartache
                                   Am
Of the kind that will not pass by

Even if you don't see the end
        D               G
Of what lies beyond the bend

Don't stay that way
                    C/G   G   Am
It's all in a day believe me
                             D
Even the best of dreams must end

Even so it grieves me


CHORUS::
C    D      Bm7   C
Stay loose, don't fight it
       D        Bm7     Em
Let it take you all the way
    C       D      Bm7      C
And if it's wrong, you will right it
       D           Bm7    C    G
Do not waste these hours away


VERSE 2::

How many times have I told you
                               Am
These are the tears I've shed

Could it be that I need help
      D                  G
Is it maybe, I've come undone

And one thing more
                       C/G G   Am
You know it don't come ea__sy
                              D
Even the best of friends must part

Even so it grieves me


CHORUS::
C    D      Bm7   C
Stay loose, don't fight it
         D      Bm7 Em
Let love take a holiday
C       D      Bm7          C
If it's wrong, you're gonna right it
       D           Bm7    C    G
Do not waste these hours away


VERSE 3::

Soon the storm will be over
                                 Am
And the clouds will all pass by

To be insane beyond belief
       D                G
Is sometimes the best relief

And one thing sure
                    C/G G   Am
Love never did come ea__sy
                             D
Even the best of dreams must end

Even so it grieves me


CHORUS::
C    D      Bm7   C
Stay loose, don't fight it
       D        Bm7     Em
Let it take you all the way
    C       D      Bm7      C
And if it's wrong, you will right it
       D           Bm7    C    G
Do not waste these hours away


INSTRUMENTAL:: G      Am    D


CHORUS::
C    D      Bm7   C
Stay loose, don't fight it
         D      Bm7 Em
Let love take a holiday
C       D      Bm7          C
If it's wrong, you're gonna right it
       D           Bm7    C    G
Do not waste these hours away
