Em                    C                 G
  If I were stronger I'd just let you leave
Em                        C               G
  You'd say it's over and I would just agree
            Em                      C             Em
  Then I'd tell you I wish you the best, I really do
                    C                  G   
  You deserve happiness, I can't give you what you need
           D
  You can leave, just not tonight


G
  I'm not ready to lay this down
D
  I'm too stubborn to quit you now
             Em
  There's a voice somewhere deep inside of my mind
          C                  D
  Saying it's too soon to let you go tonight
G
  I'm in no hurry to hear goodbye
D
  Why can't it wait till the morning light?
  Em                             C   
  We can come undone some other time
D                   Em      C      G
  Just not tonight


Em                     C                   G
  Before the stars go out, before we disappear
Em                   C                        G
  Let me hold you now, rest your head, right here
         Em                        C                  Em
  But I can't live without you to make your love come back
                               C
  What can I say to make you stop
                 G                                    D
  Here in your tracks, I know you're staring at the wrong way, as tonight


  G
  I'm not ready to lay this down
D
  I'm too stubborn to quit you now
             Em
  There's a voice somewhere deep inside of my mind
          C                  D
  Saying it's too soon to let you go tonight
G
  I'm in no hurry to hear goodbye
D
  Why can't it wait till the morning light?
  Em                             C    
  We can come undone some other time
D                   
  Just not tonight
