[Intro]
 Cm


[Verse 1]
Cm                                          Fm
If you go away on this summer day, then you might 

as well take the sun away.
        Bb
All the birds that flew in the summer sky, when 
    Eb
our love was new and our hearts were high.
         Ab                    G
When the day was young and the nights were long..
        Cm
and the moon stood still for the night bird's song.
       Ab              G               Cm
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away.


[Chorus]
G          Cm                    Ab
But if you stay, I'll make you a day, like no day has 
G                 Cm
been, or will be again.
Cm                                     Ab
We'll sail the sun, we'll glide on the rain, we'll talk 
       Bb                       Cm
to the trees, we'll worship the wind.


[Bridge]
Eb   G      Cm           Db                          Fm
Then if you go I'll understand, leave me just enough love 
   G       Cm
to fill my hand.
       Eb              Fm              G      D G
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away.


[Verse 2]
Cm                                           Fm       
If you go away, as I know you will, you must tell the world 
                         Bb
to stop turning..til you return again, if you ever do, for 
     Eb
what good is love without loving you.
      Ab       Db   G                          Cm
Can I tell you now, as you turn to go, I'll be dying slow to 
    Bb
the next hello.
       Ab              G               Cm
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away.


[Interlude] 
 C....Ab 


[Verse 3]
       Dbm           A        Dbm               Gbm
If you go away, as I know you must, there'll be nothing left 

in the world to trust.
        B                                        E
Just an empty room full of empty space, like the empty look I 

see on your face.
A        Ab                                  Dbm
I'd have been the shadow of your shadow if I thought it might 

have kept me by your side.
       A               Ab              Dbm
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away.


[Verse 4]
Ab         Dbm                                           Ab
But if you stay, I'll make you a night like no night has been 
           Dbm
or will be again.
Dbm                                         A
I'll sail on your smile, I'll glide on your touch, I'll talk to 
     B                   E
your eyes that I love so much.
    Ab     Dbm               D                    Gbm
But if you go, I know I will cry, til the good is gone from the 
Ab       Dbm
word goodbye.
       Ab              Gbm             Abm      Ab           Dbm
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away, please don't go 
      B A Db
away.
