G Bm
So it comes to the end of the day
Em D
I'm checking out of my hotel room today.
Am G
It's been two years since I've seen your face
D
The girl beside me reminds me of how you taste.
G Bm
Since I've seen you I've been beaten down and bruised
Em D
And every day I'm feelin' more and more misused.
Am G
I never thought that I would be without your love
D
Years gone by you're still the one I'm thinkin' of
CHORUS:
C G
Sweet Savannah, you shine so bright.
D G
May the evening bring you're favorite night.
C G
Sweet Savannah, you been gone so long
C D
But I've got to move on...
G Bm
It's gettin' cold, I put my jacket on your back
Em D
And we smoke a cigarette, the last one in the pack.
Am G
I still remember exactly what you said...
D
You had demons that you couldn't put to bed.
G Bm
Now I'm leavin', yeah, I'm movin' out west
Em D
And it's time for us to lay our history to rest.
Am G
I still remember a teardrop in your eye
D
But you know I couldn't stand to see you cry...
CHORUS:
C G
Sweet Savannah, you shine so bright.
D G
May the evening bring you're favorite night.
C G
Sweet Savannah, you been gone so long
C D
But I've got to move on...
Am D Am D Am D
G Bm
So now I close on this Hollywood night
Em D
Where this counterculture cultivates an emptiness inside.
Am G
Would it be different if you were still here in my life?
D
Would I be sober and would you be my wife?
CHORUS:
C G
Sweet Savannah, you shine so bright.
D G
May the evening bring you're favorite night.
C G
Sweet Savannah, you been gone so long
C D
But I've got to move on...
