Stay, as performed by Alison Krauss
written by Allyson Taylor-Larry Byrom
charted by Bo Frazer
with help from Emer M. Doherty
-------------------------------------------
Notes: Alison does this in F#, (capo on fret #4)
If you can play the style where you hit the bass string and then
strum, then (on both verse and chorus) hit the bass notes in the
D to Em progression in a descending scale; i.e.,
D A/7 Bm A G D/3 Em so the bass notes are:
D C# B A G F# E
Stay
[Verse]
D A Bm Where have you been, A G My long lost friend? D Em A It's good to see you again. D A Bm Come and sit for a while; A G I've missed your smile. D Em A Today the past is goodbye. F Em D Time can't erase F Em D A A lover's embrace. Bm Can't you hear it calling? E A new day dawning G F G You were longing to find.
[Verse]
D A Bm Love's taken you far A G Away from my heart, D Em A And I've been here all alone. D A Bm Have your eyes failed to find A G What took you from mine, D Em A A vision that's faded through time? F Em D But you sail away, F Em D A Farther than a summer's day, Bm Cause you heard it calling, E A new day dawning, G F G You were longing to find.
[Chorus]
D A Bm A G There is a way to make you stay. D Em A Darlin don't turn away. D A G A G Don't doubt your heart, and keep us apart; D F G I'm right where you are. D Stay.
(solo over verse)
[Chorus]
D A Bm A G There is a way to make you stay. D Em A Darlin don't turn away. D A G A G Don't doubt your heart, and keep us apart; D F G I'm right where you are. D Stay.
