[C]
[D] [G] [C]
[G] I know you [C] loved him a [D] long [G] time ago
[D]
[Em] And even now in [Am] my heart
[D] you still want [G] him, I know
But darling, [C] this time let [D] your [G] memories [D] die
[Em] When you hold [Am] me tonight,
[D] don't [G] close your [C] eyes
[G] Don't [C] close your eyes, let [D] it be me
Don't [G] pretend it's him [D] in some [Em] fantasy
[Bm] Darling, [Am] just once let [D] yesterday go
And you'll [G] find more love [D] than you've [Em] ever known
Just [Am] hold me tight when you love me [D] tonight
Don't close [C] your [G] eyes
[G] [C]
[C] [D] [G] [C]
[G] Maybe [C] I've been a fool
[D] Holding on [G] all this [D] time
[Em] Lying here [Am] in your love
[D] Knowing he's [G] in your mind
But I keep hoping [C] someday
[D] That [G] you'll see the [D]
light
[Em] Let it be [Am] me tonight
[D] Don't [G] close your [C] eyes
[G] Don't [C] close your eyes, let [D] it be me

Darling, [Am] just once let [D] yesterday go
And you'll [G] find more love than you've [Em] ever known
Just [Am] hold me tight when you love [D] me tonight
Don't [C] close your eyes
[G] Don't [C] close your eyes, let [D] it be me
Don't [G] pretend it's him [D] in some [Em] fantasy
Darling, [Am] just once let [D] yesterday go
And you'll find [G] more love [F#m] than you've [Em] ever known
Just [Am] hold me tight when you love me [D] tonight
And don't close [C] your eyes
[G]
[G] Just [Am] hold me tight when you love me [D] tonight
And don't [C] close your eyes
