verse 1 

                          G   G7 
Take the ribbon from your hair, 
                          C 
shake it loose and let it fall, 
                         D7 
laying soft against your skin 
                        G 
like the shadows on the wall. 

verse 2 

                        G    G7 
Come and lay down by my side 
                        C 
'till the early morning light, 
                       D7 
all I'm taking is your time, 
                            G     G7 
help me make it through the night. 


[Refrão]
                             C 
I don't care what's right or wrong, 
                    G 
I won't try to understand, 
                     A7 
let the devil take tomorrow, 
                       D 
cause tonight I need a friend. 

verse 3 

                      G 
Yesterday is dead and gone 
                           C 
and tomorrow is out of the sight 
                    D7 
and it's sad to be alone, 
                            G    G7 
help me make it through the night.
