Am

C       A7/G        Am
Hell on earth ain't hard to find

C           A7/G Am        
But you can save me from mine

C        A7/G   Am
Stop the time's bayonet

C               A7/G    Am
From stabbing all that's delicate

C            A7/G     Am
I won't be afraid of growing old

C     A7/G     Am
If I have your hand to hold

C            A7/G Am
I'm looking for eternity

C          A7/G  Am
Will you find it with me


Chorus:

Dm    F C           G
Please, stay awhile

Dm    F C           G
Show me how to smile

Dm    F C           G
Please, stay awhile

C    A7/G          Am   
I am not a great man

C        A7/G           Am
But I'll give you all I can

C           A7/G     Am
I'll be the lashes on your eyes

C           A7/G          Am
Catch every tear that you cry


Chorus:

Dm    F C           G
Please, stay awhile

Dm    F C           G
Show me how to smile

Dm    F C           G
Please, stay awhile


      Dm
Let's fill this room with empty coffee cups 

F                              C     G
so we don't ever have to go to sleep

        Dm
Because if I close my eyes 

       F                            C     G
I fear tomorrow won't let this day repeat


   Dm
My life's been filled with turned out lights

F                              C    G
haunted by the hurt of closing doors



      Dm
Let's turn the locks and lose the keys 

F                             C    G
I don't want them open anymore (anymore)

       Dm  
Well I see you in an antique wedding gown

F                               C
and me slowly walking down the aisle 

               G
Can you see us now?


              Dm
And won't you be the mother of my child 

F                              C
I can see you every time she smiles

              G
I love your smile

     Dm    F        C    G
So please, stay awhile

Dm     F       C    G
Please stay, awhile
