Well, the sun is surely sinking down,

        Em      Bm     A   G    Em A7sus4

But the moon is slowly ris-ing.

   D                   G        D         A

So this old world must still be spinning 'round

    Em Bm   A    D    G D/E A D

And I still love you.

 

CHORUS:

    G     Em7  Asus4 A7

So, close your eyes.

C             G                     Bm

You can close your eyes, it's all right.

Em               Ass4 A7

I don't know no love songs,

    C                G          Bm

And I can't sing the blues anymore.

    Em    D/F#      G

But I can sing this song

    Em      D/F#      G    A        Bm

And you can sing this song when I'm gone.

 

Em7  F#m7  G  Em7  A7sus4  A

.

It won't be long before another day, we're gonna have a good time

And no one's gonna take that time away you can stay as long as you like.
