Intro: Dm6 E7 Am C Dm Dm6 E7 D6 E7

   Am
If you go away on this summer day
     Dm
Then you might as well take the sun away
      G7
All the birds that flew in the summer sky
      C9       C      C9       C
When our love was new and our hearts were high
          Dm6             E7
When the day was young and the night was long
     Am
And the moon stood still for the nightbird's song
       Dm7            E7 Dm6     Am
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away
         Am7                Am6
But if you stay, I'll make you a day 
                 E7-9 Am
Like no day has been or will be again 
               Am7              Am6
We'll sail on the sun, we'll ride on the rain
              G7             C
We'll talk to the trees and worship the wind. 
        E7   Am            Bb
Then if you go, I'll understand, 
            Dm6     E7       Am
Leave me just enough love to fill up my hand
            C         Dm   Dm6          E7  D6 E7
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away
     Am
If you go away, as I know you will
     Dm                  Dm7+
You must tell the world to stop turning til
   G7
You return again, if you ever do, 
       C
For what good is love without loving you
   Dm6                   E7
Can I tell you now, as you turn to go
            Am
I'll be dying slow til your next hello
        Dm7          E7  Dm6     Am
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away
         Am7               Am6
But if you stay, I'll make you a night 
           E7(9)         Am
Like no night has been, or will be again

               Am7                   Am6
I'll sail on your smile, I'll ride on your touch
               G7             C
I'll talk to your eyes that I love so much
   E7     Am           Bb
But if you go, no, I won't cry
     Dm6              E7      Am
Though the good is gone from the word goodbye
         C       Dm   Dm6           E7  D6  E7
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away
      Am
If you go away, as I know you must, 
           Dm
 There'll be nothing left in the world to trust
         G7
Just an empty room, full of empty space
        C
Like the empty look I see on your face
      Dm6                    E7
I'd have been your shadow if I thought it might
   Am
Have kept me here, by your side
        C               Dm     E7/9-                 Am
If you go away, if you go away      please don't go away
