[A] [D] [A] [D]
[A] Don't [C#m] send me [D] no distant [A] salutations
Or silly [D] souvenirs [A] from [Bm] far away
And [E] don't leave me alone in the twilight
Cause twilight is the [A] loneliest time of day
Over by [Bm] the [A] wild [F#m] woods where young lovers go
[Bm] Sparks flashing in the [E] night, true colors show
[A] If I [Bm] had my [A] way I'd [F#m] never get the urge to roam
[D] But a young man serves his [Bm] country
[E] And an old man guards the [C#m] home
Don't [A] put [Bm] me in a frame [A] upon the mantle
For memories [D] turn dusty, [Bm] old and grey
And [E] don't leave me alone in the [Bm] twilight
Cause [E] twilight is the [A] loneliest time of day
[D] [E] [F#m]
[Bm] [A] [E] [A] Ooooooh
I can [A] [D] face the [A] darkness, [F#m] all the storms in the sky
[Bm] But we all got certain [E] trials burning up [C#m] inside
[A] You [D] only [C#m] hurt [F#m] yourself, you don't know what you're doing
[Bm] Trying to make it [D] all [E] alone, who you [C#m] think you're [A] fooling
Don't [Bm] hand me [D] nothing [A] I can't [F#m] hold
Or [A] nothing [Bm] that [F#m] I can't [Bm] give away
And [E] don't leave me alone in the twilight
Cause twilight is the loneliest [A] time of day
[A]
[Bm] [D] [A] Ooooooh
[E] [F#m] [Bm] [C#m] Ooooooh
[E] Ooooooh
[A] [D] [F#m] Ooooooh
[E] [F#m]
[Bm] [A] Ooooooh
[E] [A]
