Verse 1:
D MajorD     G+G     F# minorF#m
It was late last night
  A augmentedA         D MajorD
And all the band were sleeping
    G+G     F# minorF#m    A augmentedA
It was late last night
D MajorD     G+G     F# minorF#m
I was listening to
    A augmentedA      D MajorD
To the generators humming
    G+G      F# minorF#m
To the tent-zipping drunk
     A augmentedA
Quipping, guy-rope tripping

Verse 2:
D MajorD     G+G     F# minorF#m
And in the gathering dew
   A augmentedA     D MajorD
I was lucid as a floodlight
   G+G      F# minorF#m   A augmentedA
I was thinking of you
D MajorD      G+G     F# minorF#m
But now I'm back here before you
    A augmentedA       D MajorD
You can see me shaking
      F# minorF#m    A augmentedA
Cos in that moment I knew
    A augmentedA      A augmentedA      A augmentedA
I just knew, I just knew, I just knew


Verse 3:
D MajorD   G+G      F# minorF#m
Forty seasons have flown
    A augmentedA         D MajorD
Since I first sat down beside you
   G+G      F# minorF#m    A augmentedA
In a crowd on our own
  D MajorD    G+G      F# minorF#m
And how one person could thrill me
  A7A7      D MajorD
Occupy me and fulfil me
    G+G     F# minorF#m
I could never have known
    A augmentedA   A augmentedA  A augmentedA
I could never have known

Chorus:
G+G            A augmentedA
How in the first of our autumns
     A7A7    E minorEm
We'd be falling so steeply
           A augmentedA
We could share so completely
G+G            A augmentedA
How in the third of our summers
     A7A7      E minorEm
When you first tried to leave me
          A augmentedA
You could cut me so deeply
    A7A7     A7A7
I could never have known

Bridge:
D MajorD     D augmentedDaug    D MajorD
And on my wilderness journeys
     D augmentedDaug     G+G
With your compass still in me
    GaugGaug     D MajorD
All the shelters were empty
      D augmentedDaug    D MajorD
Through the longest of winters
    D augmentedDaug      G+G
When I called you downriver
    GaugGaug    G+G
But you gave me no answer
   A augmentedA       B minorBm
And I feared for my mind
     G+G       B minorBm
Until the first signs of springtime
     G+G     B minorBm
You were sick and I saw you
    A augmentedA
And how much you'd missed me
E minorEm     G+G    E minorEm
Now in our eleventh autumn
    G+G        E minorEm
You are blonde from the summer
    G+G      A augmentedA
And I'm back here before you
    A7A7   A augmentedA
And you see me shaking

Chorus:
G+G            A augmentedA
Will you go with me, my love?

From here together
E minorEm           A augmentedA
From this quiet rented house
G+G            A augmentedA
Will you go with me, my love?

To face together
E minorEm          A augmentedA     A7A7
Every rise and every slow decline
E minorEm        B minorBm
Will you go with me
    F# minorF#m      E minorEm
Through dream and fantasy?


Outro:
G+G       A augmentedA B minorBm
Through the open fields
  F# minorF#m     E minorEm
And tangled valleys?
G+G        D MajorD
Will you go with me
    F# minorF#m      E minorEm
Through grief and ecstasy?
G+G        A augmentedA B minorBm
And every shade be-tween
  F# minorF#m     E minorEm
The cold morning stars
    A augmentedA  A7A7  G+G    B minorBm
And the deep blue sea
