Stay - Morten Harket

This is a song from Morten's solo album "Wild Seed" from 1995. It's written by Morten and Håvard Rem.
It really sounds beautifully strumming along with an acoustic guitar.
The song is pretty straight forward, but please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

[Intro]:

D A Bm F#m G D G A
D A Bm F#m G D G A


[Verse 1]:
D    A
Stay
  Bm          F#m
I say it as a friend
G                  D
 He can handle the daylight
        G             A
But the night has its way


[Verse 2]:
D         A
Touch him
            Bm        F#m
Like on one did before
   G                   D
No fingerprints on the dew
   G    A
So stay
             D  A  Bm  F#m  G  D  G  A
Whatever you do


[Verse 3]:
          D        A
Watch him laughing
             Bm      F#m
Ooh he can't help it
   G                          D
He sees through the eyes of a child
        G    A
When he sees you


[Verse 4]:
D    A
Baby
             Bm       F#m
The town you come from
    G                  D
You said you'd like to leave
     G   A
Then say
                D  A  Bm  F#m  G  D  G  A
Where you gonna be
                D  A  Bm  F#m  G  D  G  A
Where you gonna be


[Bridge]:
       G
Do you see me
        Bm
In your sleep
                  G
The dreams you're dreaming
          D             A
Please be gentle, oh be gentle
                G
There can be no other
        Bm
Down so deep
           G
But you do see me
       D            A
Do you know what to keep
        D  A  Bm  F#m  G  D  G  A
Do you?
             D  A  Bm  F#m  G  D  G  A
Whatever you do


[Verse 5]:
   D    A
So stay
  Bm          F#m
I say it as a friend
G                  D
 He can handle the daylight
        G             A
But the night has its way


[Verse 6]:
D    A
Baby
            Bm        F#m
Like on one did before
   G                   D
No fingerprints on the dew
   G    A
So stay
             D  A  Bm  F#m  G  D  G  A
Whatever you do
             D  A  Bm  F#m  G  D  G  A
Whatever you do


[Outro]:
D    A  Bm  F#m  G  D  G  A
Stay
D    A  Bm F#m  G  D  G  A
Baby
