CmIf you go away, on this summer day..
         Fmthen you might as well, take the sun away.
        A#All the birds that flew, in the summer sky..
         D#when our love was new, and our hearts were high.
         G#                     GWhen the day was young, and the nights were long..
        Cmand the moon stood still, for the nightbird's song.
       G#              G               CmIf you go away, if you go away, if you go away

CHORUS:
Cm                               G#But if you stay, I'll make you a day..like no day has 
G                 Cmbeen, or will be again.
Cm                                    G#We'll sail the sun, we'll ride on the rain..we'll talk 
       A#                        Cmto the trees, we'll fly with the wind.

Cm                                             FmBut if you go, when I love you so..there'll be nothing
                                     A#left in the world, you know..just an empty room full of
                      D#empty space, like the empty look I see on your face.
       G#              G               CmIf you go away, if you go away, if you go away

CHORUS:
Cm                               G#But if you stay, I'll make you a day..like no day has

Cm                                    G#We'll sail the sun, we'll ride on the rain..we'll talk
