C Take the ribbon from your C7 hair
shake it loose and let it F fall
layin' soft against my G7 skin
like the shadows on the C wall
C Come and lay down by my C7 side
till the early morning F light
all I'm taking is your G7 time
help me make it through the C night
C I don't G7 care who's right or F wrong
I don't try to under C stand
let the G7 devil take D7 tomorrow
Lord, tonight I need a G7 friend
G7 Yesterday is dead and C gone
and C7 tomorrow's out of F sight
and it's sad to be G7 alone
help me make it through the C night
C Lord, it's sad to be G7 alone,
help me make it through the C night.
Kris Kristofferson
