If You Go Away

Am 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 C9 C C9 C when our love was new and our hearts were high; Dm6 E7 when the day was young and the night was long Am and the moon stood still for the nightbird’s song , Dm7 E7 Dm6 Am if you go away , if you go away , if you go away . Am7 Am6 but if you stay , i’ll make you a day E7 - 9 Am like no day has been or will be again; Am7 Am6 we’ll sail on the sun , we’ll ride on the rain , G7 C we’ll talk to the trees and worship the wind . E7 Am A# then if you go , i’ll understand , Dm6 E7 Am leave me just enough love to fill up my hand , C Dm Dm6 E7 D6 E7 if you go away , if you go away , if you go away . Am if you go away , as i know you will , Dm Dm+7 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? Dm6 E7 can i tell you now , as you turn to go , Am i’ll be dying slow til your next hello , Dm7 E7 Dm6 Am if you go away , if you go away , if you go away . Am7 Am6 but if you stay , i’ll make you a night E7 - 9 Am like no night has been , or will be again; Am7 Am6 i’ll sail on your smile , i’ll ride on your touch , G7 C i’ll talk to your eyes that i love so much . E7 Am A# but if you go , no , i won’t cry , Dm6 E7 Am though the good is gone from the word good - bye . C Dm Dm6 E7 D6 E7 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; Dm6 E7 i’d have been your shadow if i thought it might Am have kept me here , by your side; C Dm E7 - 9 Am if you go away , if you go away . . . please don’t go away .
