G   G7
Take the ribbon from your hair,
                          C
shake it loose and let it fall,
                         D7
laying soft against your skin
                        G
like the shadows on the wall.

[Verse 2]

                        G    G7
Come and lay down by my side
                        C
'till the early morning light,
                       D7
all I'm taking is your time,
                            G     G7
help me make it through the night.

[Chorus]

                             C
I don't care what's right or wrong,
                    G
I won't try to understand,
                     A7
let the devil take tomorrow,
                       D
cause tonight I need a friend.

[Verse 3]

                      G
Yesterday is dead and gone
                           C
and tomorrow is out of the sight
                    D7
and it's sad to be alone,
                            G    G7
help me make it through the night.

[Chorus]

                             C
I don't care what's right or wrong,
                    G
I won't try to understand,
                     A7
let the devil take tomorrow,
                       D
cause tonight I need a friend.

[Verse 4]

                      G
Yesterday is dead and gone
                           C
and tomorrow is out of the sight
                    D7
and it's sad to be alone,
                            G    G7
help me make it through the night.
                   D7
I don’t want to be alone,
                            G
help me make it through the night.
