If You Go Away

 

1. If you [Em]go away on this summer day

Then you [Am]might as well take the sun away

All the [D7]birds that flew in the summer sky

When our [G9]love was [G]new and our [G9]hearts were [G]high

When the day was [Am6]young and the night was [B7]long

And the [Em]moon stood still for the night bird's song

If you [Am7]go away, if you [B7]go away, if you [Em]go away

 

Chorus 1: But if you [Em7]stay, I'll make you a [Em6]day (night)

Like no day has [B7]been, or will be a- [Em]gain

We'll sail the [Em7]sun, we'll ride on the [Em6]rain

We'll talk to the [D7]trees and worship the [G]wind

Then [B7]if you [Em]go, I'll under- [F]stand

Leave me just enough [Am6]love to [B7]fill up my [Em]hand

If you [G]go away, if you [Am]go away, if you go [B7]away [A6] [B7]

 

2. If you [Em]go away as I know you will

You must [Am]tell the world to stop turning

'til you re- [D7]turn again if you ever do

For what [G]good is love without loving you?

Can I [Am6]tell you now as you turn to [B7]go

I'll be [Em]dying slowly 'til the next hello

If you [Am7]go away If you [B7]go away If you [Em]go away

 

Chorus 2: But if you [Em7]stay, I'll make you a [Em6]day (night)

Like no day has [B7]been, or will be a- [Em]gain

We'll sail your [Em7]smile, we'll ride on the [Em6]touch

We'll talk to your [D7]eyes and I love so [G]much

But [B7]if you [Em]go, I won’t [F]cry

Though the [Am6]good is gone from the [B7]world good [Em]bye

If you [G]go away, if you [Am]go away, if you go [B7]away [A6] [B7]

 

3. If you [Em]go was i know you must

There'll be [Am]nothing left In the world to trust

Just an empty [D7]room Full of empty space

Like the [G]empty look I see on your face

I’d have [Am6]been your shadow if I though it [B7]might

Have [Em]kept me here, by your side

If you [G]go away, if you [Am]go away, [B7]Please don’t [Em]go away
