If You Go Away chords by Brenda Lee

Guitar chords with lyrics


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
