[Verse 1]
                           A
Take the ribbon from your hair
          A7               D
Shake it loose and let it fall
                      E7
Layin' soft upon my skin
                         A
Back the shadows on the wall
 
 
[Verse 2]
N.C.                     A
Come and lay down by my side
          A7             D
'Till the early mornin' light
                        E7
All I'm takin' is your time
               A
Help me make it through the night
 
 
[Verse 3]
N.C.              A7           D
I don't care what's right or wrong
                      A
I won't try to understand
                      B
Let the devil take tomorrow
                       E7
Cuz tonight I need a friend
 
 
[Verse 4]
N.C.                   A
Yesterday is dead and gone
      A7               D
And tomorrow's out of sight
                   E7
So damn sad to be alone
                 A
Help me make it through the night
 
 
[Outro]
         A7           D
I don't wanna sleep alone
    E7     A
So help me make it
             D    A  E7  A
Through the night
