Intro Cm

Cm  
If you go away on this summer day 
Fm
then you might as well take the sun away
Bb7
All the birds that flew in the summer sky
D#
When our love was new and our hearts were high
Fm                      G
When the day was young and the nights were long
Cm                              Fm
And the moon stood still to the night bird's song
G#             G              Cm
If you go away if you go away if you go away

Cm        
But if you stay I'll make you a day 
     Cm7        G               Cm
like no day has been or will be again
                          Cm7         G#
We'll sail the sun we'll glide on the rain 
                  Bb7                    D#
we'll talk to the trees and worship the wind
G          Cm      C#
But if you go I'll understand 
                     Fm      G      Cm
leave me just enough love to fill my hand
D#             Fm             G             Fm  G
If you go away if you go away if you go away

Cm
If you go away as I know you will 
         Fm
you must tell the world to stop turning
         Bb7
Till you return again if you ever do 
    D#
for what good is love without loving you
Fm                        G 
Can I tell you now as you turn to go 
Cm                                 D#
I'll be dying slowly till the next hello
G#             G              Cm             G#7sus4 G#7
If you go away if you go away if you go away

C#m                 C#m7
If you go away as I know you must 
         A               
there'll be nothing left in this world to trust
  B                        B7     
Just an empty room full of empty space 
E
like the empty look I see on your face
F#m                              G#
I'd have been the shadow of your shadow
     C#m                                   E
If I thought it might have kept me by your side
A              G#             C#m
If you go away if you go away if you go away

C#m                             C#m7
But if you stay I'll make you a night 
         G#                       C#m
like no night has been or will be again
     C#m7          C#m                     A
I'll sail on your smile I'll glide on your touch 
             B                     E       G#m
I'll talk to your eyes that I love so much
          C#m        D                    F#m   
But if you go I will cry till the good is gone 
         G#    C#m
from the words goodbye
E              F#m            G#
If you go away if you go away if you go away 
             C#m     B  C#m  A  C#
please don't go away
