[Intro]
G C/G G C/G

[Chorus]
G        C      G
Don't send me no distant salutations
       C     G/B Am
Or silly souvenirs from far away
     D              D7
And don't leave me alone in the twilight
    D    C   G/B    D/A   G
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time of day

[Verse]
G      C  G/B Em
Over by the wildwood where young lovers go
Am              D
Sparks flashing in the night, true colors show
G      C    G/B Em
If I had my way I'd never get the urge to roam
   Am                 D
But a young man serves his country and an old man guards the home

[Chorus]
   G      C       G
Don't put me in a frame upon the mantel
          C   G/B   Am
'Fore memories turn dusty old and gray
     D              D7
And don't leave me alone in the twilight
    D    C   G/B    D/A   G
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time of day

C  G/B  D/A    Em
Mmmm mmmmm hmmmm hmm hmmmmm
C  G/B  D/A    G
Mmmm mmmmm hmmmm hmm hmmmmm

[Verse]
G        C     G/B Em
I could face the darkness, oh storms in the skies
Am              D
But we all got certain trials burnin' up inside
G    C    G/B Em
You only hurt yourself you don't know what you're doing
Am             D
Tryin' to make it all alone who you think you're fooling

[Chorus]
   G    C        G
Don't hand me nothing I can't hold
        C    G/B  Am
Or nothing that I can't give away
     D              D7
And don't leave me alone in the twilight
    D    C   G/B    D/A   G
'Cause twilight is the loneliest time of day

C  G/B  D/A    Em
Mmmm mmmmm hmmmm hmm hmmmmm
C  G/B  D/A    G
Mmmm mmmmm hmmmm hmm hmmmmm
C  G/B  D/A    Em
Mmmm mmmmm hmmmm hmm hmmmmm
C  G/B  D/A    G
