Intro: Am   F     C        G  (4 times) 
 
Am      F      C      G 
Go on and close the curtains 

'cause all we need is candlelight 

You and me and the bottle of wine 

and hold you tonight 
 

Am      F      C      G 
Well, we know I'm going away 

And how I wish, I wish it weren't so 

so take this wine and drink with me 

let's delay our misery... 
 
Chorus: 
Am      F 
Save tonight 
C         G 
And find the break of dawn 
Am      F 
Come tomorrow 
C         G 
Tomorrow I'll be gone 
 

Am      F      C      G 
There's a log on the fire  

and it burns like me for you 

Tomorrow comes with one desire.. 

to take me away 
 

Am      F      C      G 
It ain't easy to say goodbye  

darling please don't start to cry 

'cause girl you know I've got to go 

and Lord I wish it wasn't so 
 
{chorus} 
 
Solo 
 
Play this next verse a bit muted... 
 

Am      F      C      G 
Tomorrow comes to take me away 

I wish that I, that I could stay 

but girl you know I've got to go, oh 

and Lord I wish it wasn't so 
 
{chorus}
