Intro:  G      Am7        D7         G       Am7


G        Am7         D7           G        Am7
Softly,       I will leave you, softly
       D7          G
For my heart would break,
              C                 G     Am7
If you should wake, and, see me go.

     D7        G       Cm7         F7        A#    Cm7
So I leave you softly,      Long before you, miss  me,
       F7          A#              D#
Long before, your arms, can beg me stay,
             Dm7   A#      F7       G     Am7
For one more hour,     or, one more day.


      D7      G       Cm
After all the years,
        D7       Em     Em7  C
I can't bear the tears, to   fall,
   D#     Cm7       D7         G       Am7     D7
So softly,     as I leave, you there.
