[Intro]
D  Dsus4  D

[Verse 1]
 D                        D   
Take the ribbon from your hair
                          G   
Shake it loose and let it fall
Em                  A   
Layin' soft upon my skin
                         D  Dsus4 D
Like the shadows on the wall

[Verse 2]
 D                      D   
Come and lay down by my side
                       G    
Till the early morning light
Em                     A   
All I'm taking is your time
                             D   Dsus4 D
Help me make it through the night

[Chorus]
D                            G   
I don't care who's right or wrong
                    D    
I don't try to understand
                     E     
Let the devil take tomorrow
                        A    
Lord, tonight I need a friend

[Verse 3]
 A                    D   
Yesterday is dead and gone
                      G    
and tomorrow's out of sight
Em                  A   
And it's sad to be alone
                             D   Dsus4 D
Help me make it through the night

[Instrumental/Verse 4]

Em                    A   
Lord, it's sad to be alone

Help me make it through the night
