EmBm
Don't turn your back on me
FC
Conceal and protect me
EmBmAmF
I need you to stop me from reeling around
EmBm
The time's gonna come when
FC
You no longer need me
EmBmCD
But stay by my side til the sun has gone down

GEm D4 DD7/4 D7 G7M G
When I am an old man and live by the sea
BmAmD7/4 GD7/4 D7
Will all your thoughts fly to me

EmBm
As much as I want to
FC
I can't hold on to you
EmBmAmF
When will you return to your old home again
EmBm
May love lie around you
FC
Good fortune surround you
EmBmCD
You know where to turn to when you need a friend
