{c:  Simpler version of song }
[Em] [Em7]  [Cmaj7] [F#m]  [B7]
If you go a-[Em]way ...on this summer day,
Then you [Am] might as well take the sun away,
All the [D7] birds that flew ...in the summer sky,
When [G] our love was new, and our hearts were high,
When the [Am/C] day was young, and the [B7] night was long,
And the [Em] moon stood still ...for the [Em7] nightbird's song,
If you [Am/C] go away, if you [B7] go away, ...if you [Em] go away!
{c: }
But, ...if you [Em] stay, I'll make you a [A] day
Like no day has [B7] been, or will be a-[Em]gain,
We'll [B7] ride on the [Em] rain, we'll sail on the [A] sun, 
We'll talk to the [D7] trees, and worship the [G] wind,
Then, if you [Em] go, I'll under-[F]stand,
Leave me just [F#m] enough love to [B7] hold in my [Em] hand,
If you go a-[G]way, if you go a-[Am]way,
If you go a-[B7]way!   
{c: }
Ne me quitte [Em] pas, il faut oublier,
Tout peut [Am] s'oblier, qui s'enfuit déja,
Oubli-[D7]er le temps ...des malentendus,
Et le [G] temp perdu, a savoir comment,
Oubli-[Am/C]er ces heures ...qui tuai-[B7]ent parfois,
A [Em] coups de pourquoi ...le [Em7] couer du Bonheur,
Ne me [Am/C] quitte pas, ne me [B7] quitte pas,
Ne me quitte [Em] pas!   [A] [Em]  
{c: }
But, ...if you [Em] stay, I'll make you a [A] night
Like no night has [B7] been, or will be a-[Em]gain,
We'll [B7] ride on the [Em] rain, we'll sail on your [A] touch, 
We'll talk to your [D7] eyes, that I love so [G] much,
Then, if you [Em] go, I'll under-[F]stand,
Leave me just [F#m] enough love to [B7] hold in my [Em] hand,
If you go a-[G]way, if you go a-[Am]way,
If you go a-[B7]way!   
{c: }
If you [Em] go away, as I know you must,
There'll be [Am] nothing left in this world to trust,
Just an [D7] empty room, full of empty space,
Like the [G] empty look ...I see on your face,
[Am/C] Oh, I'd have been the [B7] shadow of your shadow,
[Em] If it might have [Em7] kept me by your side,
...If you [Am/C] go away, if you [B7] go away, if you go a-[Em]way!

[NC] Please, don't go away!
