              Em                                Am       
If you go a - way on this summer day, then you might as well take the sun away,
          D7
All the birds that flew in the summer sky, 
           G
When our love was new, and our hearts were high,
         Am/C                   B7
When the day was young, and the night was long,
         Em                        Em7/D         
And the moon stood still for the nightbird's song,
      Am/C             B7              Em
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away!


             Em        Em7/D     Em6/C#                B7                   Em
But, if you stay, I'll make you a day like no day has been, or will be a - gain,
       B7         Em         Em7/D       Em6/C#
We'll sail on the sun, we'll ride on the rain,
                   D7                     G
We'll talk to the trees, and worship the wind,
 B7          Em                 F6                 F#m7b5          B7         Em
Then, if you go, I'll under - stand, leave me just enough love to hold in my hand,
               G                 Am                  B7    
If you go a - way, if you go a - way, if you  go a - way!


        Em                                      Am
Ne me quitte pas, il faut oublier, tout peut s'oblier, qui s'enfuit deja, 
        D7                                  G
Oubli - er le temps des malentendus, et le temp perdu, a savoir comment,
      Am/C                        B7                 Em                    Em7/D
Oubli - er ces heures qui tuai - ent parfois, a coup de "Pouquois" le couer du Bonheur, 
       Am/C               B7                Em           A/C#  Em
Ne me quitte pas, ne me quitte pas, ne me quitte pas!


             Em        Em7/D      Em6/C#                    B7                   Em
But, if you stay, I'll make you a night, like no night has been, or will be a - gain,
     B7           Em         Em7/D        Em6/C#
I'll sail on the smile, I'll ride on your touch,
                   D7                   G
I'll talk to your eyes, that I love so much,
 B7          Em                 F6                 F#m7b5          B7         Em
Then, if you go, I'll under - stand, leave me just enough love to hold in my hand,
               G                 Am                   B7     B7sus4  B7
If you go a - way, if you go a - way, if you  go a - way!


       Em                                         Am                               
If you go away, as I know you must, there'll be nothing left in this world to trust,
          D7                                       G
Just an empty room, full of empty space, like the empty look... I see on your face,
Am/C                                         B7     Em                          Em7/D
      Oh, I'd have been the shadow of your shadow,      if it might have kept me by your side,
      Am/C             B7                     Em
If you go away, if you go away, if you go a - way!   Please, don't go away!
