G5      C5      G5
Don't send me no distant salutations
G5            E5                  A5
or silly souvenirs from far away
D5
Don't leave me alone in the twilight
D5                  D5                  G5
Twilight is the loneliest time a day
G5      C5               G5
Over by the wildwood
                 E5
Where young lovers go
A5
Sparks flashig in the night
D5
Thrue colours show
If I had my way I'd never
get the urge to roam
A young man serves his country
and an old man guards the home

G5                 C5                   G5
Don't put me in a frame upon the mantel
                    C5  E5         A5
'Fore memories turn dusty old and grey
D5
Don't leave me alone in the twilight
                 D5                G5
Twilight is the loneliest time a day

C5 G5 D5 E5  C5 C5 D5 G5

I could take the darkness oh
Storms in the skies
But we all got certain trials
burnin' up inside
you only hurt yourself
you dont know what you doing
trying to make it all alone
who you think you foolin
dont hand me nothin i can hold
or nothin that i can gave away
dont leave me alone in the twilight
cos twilight is a lonliest time a day
