Intro: Cm 

#1. 
Cm 
If you go away, on this summer day.. 
         Fm 
then you might as well, take the sun away. 
        A# 
All the birds that flew, in the summer sky.. 
         D# 
when our love was new, and our hearts were high. 
         G#                     G 
When the day was young, and the nights were long.. 
        Cm 
and the moon stood still, for the nightbird's song. 
       G#              G               Cm 
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away 

Cm                               G# 
But if you stay, I'll make you a day..like no day has  
G                 Cm 
been, or will be again. 
Cm                                    G# 
We'll sail the sun, we'll ride on the rain..we'll talk  
       A#                        Cm 
to the trees, we'll fly with the wind. 


#2. 
Cm                                             Fm 
But if you go, when I love you so..there'll be nothing 
                                     A# 
left in the world, you know..just an empty room full of 
                      D# 
empty space, like the empty look I see on your face. 
       G#              G               Cm 
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away 

Cm                               G# 
But if you stay, I'll make you a day..like no day has  
G                 Cm 
been, or will be again. 
Cm                                    G# 
We'll sail the sun, we'll ride on the rain..we'll talk  
       A#                        Cm 
to the trees, we'll fly with the wind. 


OUTRO: 
            Fm              G               Cm 
But, if you go away, if you go away, if you go away.
