[Verse]
G                C   D             G  G/F#  Em
I know you loved him, a long time ago
               Am   D                     G    C    G
Even now in my arms, you still want him I know
                  C   D                   G   G/F#   Em
But Darlin' this time, let your memories die
                   Am     D                 C   G
When you hold me tonight, don't close your eyes

[Chorus]
G                 C               D
Don't close your eyes, let it be me
                   G      G/F#     Em
Don't pretend it's him in some fantasy
             Am                  D
Darlin' just once let yesterday go
                      G         G/F#        Em
And you'll find more love than you've ever know
              Am                          D
Just hold me tight, when you love me tonight
                       C G6add11/B Am7 G
And don't close your eyes

[Verse]
G                  C   D                    G  G/F#  Em
Maybe I've been a fool, holdin' on all this time
                    Am  D                       G
Lyin' here in your arms, knowin' he's in your mind
                       C   D                    G   G/F#   Em
But I keep hoping some day, that you'll see the light
               C       D                 C    G
Let it be here tonight, don't close your eyes

[Chorus]
G                 C               D
Don't close your eyes, let it be me
                   G      G/F#     Em
Don't pretend it's him in some fantasy
             Am                  D
Darlin' just once let yesterday go
                      G         G/F#        Em
And you'll find more love than you've ever know
              Am                          D
Just hold me tight, when you love me tonight
                       C G6add11/B Am7 G
And don't close your eyes
             Am                          D
Just hold me tight, when you love me tonight
                     C G6add11/B Am7 G
And don't close your eyes
