                          C                         
Take the ribbon from your hair
         C7               F   Dm
shake it loose and let it fall
                       G   F
layin' soft against my skin
         G              C  
like the shadows on the wall

                        C
Come and lay down by my side
         C7            F    Dm
till the early morning light
                       G   F
all I'm taking is your time
        G                   C    
help me make it through the night

C                           F    G
I don't care who's right or wrong
                    C
I don't try to understand
                   D7
let the devil take tomorrow
                       G
Lord, tonight I need a friend

                      C   
Yesterday is dead and gone
    C7                F    Dm
and tomorrow's out of sight
                   G7   F
and it's sad to be alone
        G                   C  
help me make it through the night

C                    G7    F
Lord, it's sad to be alone,
        G                   C   
help me make it through the night.
