[Intro]

D  Dsus4  D


[Verse 1]

(D)                       D
Take the ribbon from your hair
                          G
Shake it loose and let it fall
Em                     A
   Layin' soft upon my skin
                         D   Dsus4  D
Like the shadows on the wall


[Verse 2]

(D)                     D
Come and lay down by my side
                       G
Till the early morning light
Em                        A
   All I'm taking is your time
                             D   Dsus4  D
Help me make it through the night


[Chorus]

D                            G
I don't care who's right or wrong
                    D
I don't try to understand
                     E
Let the devil take tomorrow
                        A
Lord, tonight I need a friend


[Verse 3]

(A)                   D
Yesterday is dead and gone
                      G
and tomorrow's out of sight
Em                     A
   And it's sad to be alone
                             D   Dsus4  D
Help me make it through the night


[Instrumental/Verse 4]

Em                       A
   Lord, it's sad to be alone
                             D   Dsus4  D
Help me make it through the night
