Goodbye Again (John Denver)

CEmAmF
It's five o'clock this morning and the sun is on
GCEmAm
the rise. There's frosting on the window pane
FG7CEm
and sorrow in your eyes. The stars are fading
AmFGC
quietly, the night is nearly gone, And so you
EmAmFG
turn away from me and tears begin to come.
[chorus]:
    FGCEm
    And it's goodbye again, I'm sorry to
    AmFGC
    be leaving you. Goodbye again, as if
    C7FG
    you didn't know, It's goodbye again,
    CEmAmF
    and I wish you could tell me Why do we
    GG7
    always fight when I have to go?
CEmAmF
It seems a shame to leave you now, your lace is
     
GCEmAm
soft and warm. I long to lay me down again and
FG7CEmAm
hold you in my arms. I long to kiss the tears
FGCEm
away, give you back the smile, But other voices
AmFG
beckon me, and for a little while.
[chorus]
AmFC
I have to go and see some friends of mine, some
AmFG
that I don't know, And some that aren't familiar
CEmAmF
with my name. It's something that's inside of
CEmAmF
me, not hard to understand, It's anyone who'll
GG7
listen to me sing.
CEmAmF
And if your hours are empty now, who am I to
GCEmAmF
blame? You think if I were always here, our love
G7CEmAm
would be the same. As it is the time we have is
     
FGCEmAm
worth the time alone, Lying by your side, the
FG
greatest peace I've ever known.
[chorus]
