#1.
G         D    C
Never thought that I'd ever want to be leaving
Dm  G
you..(ooo)
C     Am        G
You're the dearest girl I've known and there's
F       G     C
nothing that I own, that I wouldn't want to

give to you.

#2.
G       F
But late last night after we kissed goodnight
  C            F
and I started home..I met a girl so sweet and
       C
beautiful and very alone.
      F
And then I gazed into her eyes and knew how much

she wanted me and her lips were just as soft as
   A C  D
could be-eeee-eeee.

BRIDGE:
G     F D        Em    C
Goodnight my love..bless your heart and sleep tight
  D  Am    G
my looooove..goodnight.

#3.
G           D     C
No tears that I could cry would justify my hurting
F       C          Am
yoooou..and my words would sound so cheap..
         G           C
if I said that I meant to keep all the promises I
    G
made to you.
      F                 C
I tried to tell her that I loved you but she just

didn't care.
      F                  Am
And in the dark of night she pulled the ribbon out

of her hair.
C       F
And there was nothing in the world that could have

made me let her go, girl, I'm sorry but I just love
  A    D
her so..ohhh-ohhhhh.

BRIDGE:

F
love.

#4.
    B        Abm7      Db
It's so hard to say goodbye to you, the words they
      Ab
don't sound right.
     Dbm       Bm       Db
So, I'll say the words I always used to say, when I held
    Eb
you so tight.
