[Verse 1]
G#m B
Down by the water, under the willow
G#m D#m
Sits a lone ranger, minding the willow
G#m B
He and his wife, once lived happily
G#m D#m
Planted a seed, that grew through the reeds
E B
Summers and winters, through snowy Decembers
D#m G#m
Sat by the water close to the embers
E B D#m F#
Missing out the lives that they once had before
[Chorus]
E
I WOULDN'T LEAVE YOU
B
I WOULD HOLD YOU
F# C#m
WHEN THE LAST DAY COMES
E
WHAT IF YOU NEED ME
B
WON'T YOU HOLD ME
D#m C#m
ON THE LAST DAY, OUR LAST DAY
[Verse 2]
G#m B
Mr. & Mrs., dreamed of a willow
G#m D#m
Carving their names, into their willow
G#m B
If he had spoken, love would return
G#m D#m
spoken inside, too soft to be heard
E B
Summers and winters, through snowy Decembers
D#m G#m
Sat by the water, remembering embers
E B D#m F#
Missing out the lives that they once had before
[Chorus]
E
I WOULDN'T LEAVE YOU
B
I WOULD HOLD YOU
F# C#m
WHEN THE LAST DAY COMES
E
WHAT IF YOU NEED ME
B
WON'T YOU HOLD ME
D#m C#m
ON THE LAST DAY, OUR LAST DAY
E G#m D# C#m
AHHHHH, AHHHHH...
E G#m D# C#m
AHHHHH, AHHHHH...
B f#m
Somewhere the timing will all come together
B f#m
The mishaps will turn into sunny Decembers
E f#m G#m D#m C#m
The lovers will be able to find their willow
[Chorus]
(quietly single strum chords)
E
I WOULDN'T LEAVE YOU
B
I WOULD HOLD YOU
F# C#m
WHEN THE LAST DAY COMES
(Loud)
E
I WOULDN'T LEAVE YOU
B
I WOULD HOLD YOU
F# C#m
WHEN THE LAST DAY COMES
E
WHAT IF YOU NEED ME
B
WON'T YOU HOLD ME
D#m C#m
ON THE LAST DAY, OUR LAST DAY
E G#m D# C#m
AHHHHH, AHHHHH...
E G#m D# C#m
AHHHHH, AHHHHH...
