[Verse]
 Em        Am   D            B7     (E F#)      
Before the dawn I hear your whisper
 Em    Am          B7     (E F#)      Em  
In your sleep don't let the morning take him
 Em         Am      D       B7  (E F#)     Em   
Out side the birds begin to call
 Em      Am     B7 (E F#)         Em   (A B C)           
As if to summon up my ........ leaving
 
[Chorus]
 C           G         E  (E F# G)       Am       
It's been a life time since I found ... someone
 C             G                 D     Dsus4 - D - Dsus4 
Since I found someone who would stay
 C           G         E (E F# G)       Am           
I've waited too long and now you're ... leaving 
 Am7           C           B7  (E F#)     Em 
Please don't take it all away

[Chorus]
  C           G         E  (E F# G)    Am       
It's been a life time since I found  someone
 Am7            G                 D     Dsus4  D  Dsus4 
Since I found someone who would stay
 C           G         E (E F# G)       Am    
I've waited too long and now you're ... leaving

Please don't take it all away

In your sleep don't let the morning take him .....
