INTRO:  G  Em  C  D
 
 
VERSE:
G
   When the moon hung soft and low,
           Em
Catchin' stardust in the light
              C
You held me closer and closer
            D
There was magic in the night
 
 
VERSE:
G
  A sweet love song, a melody
        Em
that I still can recall
             C
Two young hearts filled with dreams
          D
To walk away with it all
 
 
CHORUS:
        G
Whoa, whoa tender years
           Em
Won't you wash away my tears
       C
How I wish you were here
              D
Please don't go, tender years
 
 
VERSE:
G
  A summer love, a beach romance
             Em
Sought her kisses in the sand
            C
Two young hearts filled with fire
         D
Lost in never-neverland.
 
 
CHORUS:
       G
Whoa, whoa tender years
           Em
Won't you wash away my tears
       C
How I wish you were here
              D
Please don't go, tender years
 
 
INTERLUDE   G  Em   C  D
 
 
CHORUS:
       G
Whoa, whoa tender years
           Em
Won't you wash away my tears
       C
How I wish you were here
              D
Please don't go, tender years

It's a very good tab my friend, I think anybody who doesn't like it,it's because the tune sounds a little dry and empty just doin it on an acoustic, but with the Sax & key boards it's perfect.
