[Verse 1]
N.C.          Em
If you go a - way on this summer day,

         Am
Then you might as well take the sun away,

        D7
All the birds that flew in the summer sky,

     G
When our love was new and our hearts were high,

         Am/C                  B7
When the day was young and the night was long,

        Em *                     Em7/D
And the moon stood still for the nightbird's song,

       Am/C            B7       N.C.        Em
If you go away, if you go away,   ...if you go away
[Verse 2]
N.C.           Em *       Em7/D      Em6/C#
But, ...if you stay, I'll make you a day...

                B7                  Em
Like no day has been or will be a - gain,

      B7          Em *       Em7/D       Em6/C#
We'll sail on the sun, we'll ride on the rain,

                  D7                    G
We'll talk to the trees and worship the wind,

B7           Em               F6
Then, if you go, I'll under - stand,

                  F#m7b5        B7         Em
Leave me just e - nough love to hold in my hand,

N.C.          G                    Am
If you go a - way, ..if you go a - way,

                 B7     B7sus4 B7
If you go ...a - way
[Verse 3]
N.C          Em
Ne me quitte pas, il faut oublier...

          Am
Tout peut s'oblier qui s'enfuit déjà,

        D7
Oubli - er le temps des malentendus,

      G
Et le temp perdu a savoir comment,

        Am/C                     B7
Oubli - er ces heures qui tuai - ent parfois,

  Em *                    Em7/D
A coups de pourquoi ...le coeur du bonheur,

N.C   Am/C           N.C.  B7
Ne me quitte pas, ...ne me quitte pas,

N.C.  Em            A/C# Em
Ne me quitte pas
[Verse 4]
N.C.           Em *       Em7/D      Em6/C#
But, ...if you stay, I'll make you a night,

                  B7                  Em
Like no night has been or will be a - gain,

     B7           Em *        Em7/D        Em6/C#
I'll sail on your smile, I'll ride on your touch,

                  D7               G
I'll talk to your eyes that I love so much,

B7           Em               F6
Then, if you go, I'll under - stand,

                  F#m7b5        B7         Em
Leave me just e - nough love to hold in my hand,

N.C.          G     N.C.          Am
If you go a - way,  if you go a - way,

N.C.          B7    B7sus4  B7
If you go a - way
[Verse 5]
N.C.   Em
If you go away, as I know you must,

            Am
There'll be nothing left in this world to trust,

        D7
Just an empty room, full of empty space,

         G
Like the empty look I see on your face,

Am/C                        B7
      Oh, I'd have been the shadow of your shadow,

Em *                           Em7/D
      If it might have kept me by your side,

N.C.          Am/C  N.C.          B7
If you go a - way,  if you go a - way,

N.C.                Em
   ...If you go a - way
N.C. Please, don't go away! ===================================================== For the CHORD BOX DIAGRAMS to better match my suggested choices you need to MANUALLY SELECT the following options by clicking on the forward/backward arrows beneath each diagram Em * <3 of 26> G <2 of 27> B7sus4 <2 of 20> F6 <2 of 28> A/C# <7 of 20> All the other chord boxes should be the default first option and don't need reselecting
