Twilight (Early alternative version) 
      A          D           A
Don't send me no distant salutations
    A         D             E
or silly souvenirs from far away
E
Don't leave me alone in the twilight
                D         E      A
Twilight is the loneliest time a day

A           D   A
Over by the wildwood
F#m
Where young lovers go 
Bm
Sparks flashin in the night 
E
True colors show 
A           D       A      F#m      
If i had my way i'd never get the urge to roam 
      Bm                                  E
But a young man serves his country and an old man guard the home 

(Same pattern for rest of song)

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

I can Face the darkness 
Oh the storm in the sky 
But we all got certain trials burnin up inside
You?ll only hurt yourself 
You don?t know what your doin
Tryin to make it all alone 
Who do you think youre foolin

D   A   E   A
Mmm mmm mmm mmm

Don?t Hand me nothing I can?t hold 
Or nothing that I can?t give away 
And Don't leave me alone in the twilight
Twilight is the loneliest time a day
