[Intro]
| Em | A | D D6 | Dmaj7 D6 |
 
[Verse 1]
              Em7
Don't look so sad
A            | D D6 | Dmaj7 D6 |
 I know it's over
              Em7
But life goes on
         A                      | D D6 | Dmaj7 D6 |
And this old world will keep on turning
              G
Let's just be glad
            A              | D D6 | Dmaj7 D6 |
We had some time to spend together
           G                 Em
There's no need to watch the bridges
           | A Esus4/A | A |
That we're burning    (break)
 
[Chorus]
         D            A
Lay your head upon my pillow
          A                            | D | % |
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine
         D     Dmaj7    D7                G                Gm
Hear the whisper of the raindrops fallin' soft against the window
Em                                      | A Esus4/A | A-9 |
  And make believe you love me, one more time       (break)
        | D D6 | Dmaj7 D6 | D D6 | Dmaj7 D6 |
For the good times
 
[Verse 2]
          Em7
I'll get along
A             | D D6 | Dmaj7 D6 |
 You'll find another
            Em7
And I'll be here
              A            | D D6 | Dmaj7 D6 |
If you should find you ever need me
            G
Don't say a word
        A          | D D6 | Dmaj7 D6 |
About tomorrow or forever
            G               Em
There'll be time enough for sadness
         | A Esus4/A | A |
When you leave me    (break)
 
[Chorus]
         D            A
Lay your head upon my pillow
          A7                           | D | % |
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine
         D     Dmaj7    D7                G                Gm
Hear the whisper of the raindrops fallin' soft against the window
    Em                                | A Esus4/A | A-9 |
And make believe you love me, one more time       (break)
 
[Outro]
       |  D  D6  |  A-9  |
For the good times
       |  D  D6  |  A-9  |    D    | D
For the good times     (ritardando)
