Emiliana Torrini - If you go away

^GmIf you go away on this summer day Then you ^Gmmight as well take the sun away;

All the b^C7irds that flew in the summer sky When our ^F9love was n^Few and our he^F9arts were h^Figh;

When the day was y^Gm6oung and the night was l^A7ong And the ^Gmmoon stood still for the nightbird's song,

If you go ^Gm7away, if you go aw^A7ay, ^Gm6if you ^Gmgo away. But if you ^Dm7stay, I'll make you a ^Dm6day

Like no day has ^A7-9been or will be ag^Gmain; We'll sail on the ^Dm7sun, we'll ride on t^Dm6he rain,

We'll talk to the t^C7rees and worship the w^Find. Then ^A7if you ^Gmgo, I'll unders^D#tand,

Leave me just enough ^Gm6love to f^A7ill up my h^Gmand, If you go aw^Fay, if you ^Gmgo aw^Gm6ay, if you go aw^A7ay. ^{G6 A7}

If you ^Gmgo away, as I know you will, Gm Gm+7 You must tell the world to stop turning til

You re^C7turn again, if you ever do, For what g^Food is love without loving you?

Can I t^Gm6ell you now, as you turn to ^A7go, I'll be d^Gmying slow til your next hello,

If you go a^Gm7way, if you go a^A7way, ^Gm6if you ^Gmgo away. But if you st^Dm7ay, I'll make you a ^Dm6night

Like no night has ^A7-9been, or will be a^Gmgain; I'll sail on your s^Dm7mile, I'll ride on your t^Dm6ouch,

I'll talk to your e^C7yes that I love so ^Fmuch. But ^A7if you ^Gmgo, no, I won't c^D#ry,

Though the ^Gm6good is gone from the ^A7word good-b^Gmye. If you go aw^Fay, if you ^Gmgo a^Gm6way, if you go aw^A7ay. ^{G6 A7}

If you go^Gm away, as I know you must, There'll be ^Gmnothing left in the world to trust,

Just an empty ^C7room, full of empty space, Like the e^Fmpty look I see on your face;

I'd have^Gm6 been your shadow if I thought it ^A7might Have k^Gmept me here, by your side;

If you go aw^Fay, if you go a^Gmway . . . ^A7-9please don't ^Gmgo away.
