G C D G D/F# Em
I know you loved him, a long time ago
Am7 D G C/G G
Even now in your mind, you still want him I know
C D G D/F# Em
But Darling this time, let your memories die
Am7 D G C/G G
When you hold me tonight, don't close your eyes
(CHORUS)
G C D
Don't close your eyes, let it be me
G D/F# Em
Don't pretend it's him in some fantasy
Am7 D
Darling just once let yesterday go
G D/F# Em
And you'll find more love than you'll ever know
Am7 D
Just hold me tight, when you love me tonight
C CM9/B A7 G
And don't close your eyes
(GUITAR INTERLUDE)

Maybe I've been a fool, holding on all this time

But I keep hoping some day, that you'll see the light

Let it be me tonight, don't close your eyes
