Intro:

G

Verse 1:

                        G
Take the ribbon from my hair,
                         C
Shake it lose and let it fall.
                         D
Laying soft agaisnt your skin,
                     G
Like a shadow on the wall.

Verse 2:

G
 Come and lay down by my side,
                       C
Till the early morning light.
                       D
All I'm takin' is your time,
                G
Help me make it through the night.

Chorus 1:

(G)                         C
 I dont care whats right or wrong,
                    G
I wont try to under-stand.
                      A7
Let the devil take to-morrow,
                      D7
'Cos tonight I need a friend.

Verse 3:

(n.C)                  G
 Yesterday is dead and gone,
                     C
And tomorrows out of sight.
                    D
And its sad to be a-lone,
                G
Help me make it through the night.
