-5 <-6 7 <-6 6 <-6 -3
Take the ribbon from your hair,
<-6 <-6 7 <-6 <-6 7 -5
Shake it loose and let it fall,
6 <-6 7 6 6 -5 <5
Layin' soft upon my skin.
7 7 <-6 6 -5 6 <-6
Like the shadows on the wall.
-5 <-6 7 <-6 6 <-6 -3
Come and lay down by my side
<-6 <-6 7 <-6 <-6 7 -5
till the early morning light
6 <-6 7 6 6 -5 <5
All I'm takin' is your time.
7 7 <-6 6 -5 <5 -5
Help me make it through the night.
-5 -5 -8 -8 8 <8 -9
I don't care who's right or wrong,
<5 -9 10 -9 -9 -9 -8 -7
I- don't try to understand-.
-8 <5 -9 -9 -9 -9 <8 -8
Let the devil take tomorrow
-8 <8 -9 -8 -8 <7 -7
Lord, tonight I need a friend.
-5 <-6 7 <-6 6 <-6 -3
Yesterday is dead and gone
<-6 <-6 7 <-6 <-6 7 -5
and tomorrow's out of sight
6 <-6 7 6 6 -5 <5
And it's sad to be alone.
7 7 <-6 6 -5 <5 -5
Help me make it through the night.
-5 -5 -8 -8 8 <8 -9
I don't care who's right or wrong,
<5 -9 10 -9 -9 -9 -8 -7
I- don't try to understand-.
-8 <5 -9 -9 -9 -9 <8 -8
Let the devil take tomorrow
-8 <8 -9 -8 -8 <7 -7
Lord, tonight I need a friend.
