C                        G7
Don't ever take yourself away
G7
Don't ever take yourself
                         F    C
To a place where I can't find you
C                        G7
Don't ever take yourself away
G7
I will never leave you

Will never deceive you
                               F    C
I'll be right there walkin' behind you


[Verse 1]
C                        G7
Dearest, I think you're the one
G7
I can't imagine anybody doin'
                F    C
More to me than you do


[Verse 2]
C                                  G7
Dearest, if it's your heart that I won
G7
There's no need for blame

And no reason to be ashamed
                                F    C
Of that place where we stand in the sun


[Chorus]
C                        G7
Don't ever take yourself away
G7
Don't ever take yourself
                         F    C
To a place where I can't find you
C                        G7
Don't ever take yourself away
G7
I will never leave you

I will never deceive you
                                F    C
I'll be right there walkin' behind you


[Verse 3]
C                        G7
Dearest, let us not drift apart
G7
It wouldn't be wise

It wouldn't be civilized
            F    C
It wouldn't be smart


[Verse 4]
C                   G7
Time heals a broken heart
G7
You've been hurt

You've been left in the dirt
                         F      C
But you still look brand new to me


[Chorus]
C                        G7
Don't ever take yourself away
G7
Don't ever take yourself
                         F    C
To a place where I can't find you
C                        G7
Don't ever take yourself away
G7
I will never leave you

I will never deceive you
                               F    C
I'll be right there walkin' behind you


[Verse 5]
C                                G7
Dearest, you're the answer to my prayers
G7
Words can't express

If my heart would confess
          F      C
What you mean to me


[Verse 6]
C                                             G7
Dearest, I can't help knowin' that you're the best
G7
I don't have to feel you to know that you're real
                         F    C
You're more than a dream to me


[Chorus]
C                        G7
Don't ever take yourself away
G7
Don't ever take yourself
                         F    C
To a place where I can't find you
C                        G7
Don't ever take yourself away
G7
I will never leave you

I will never deceive you
                                F    C
I'll be right there walking behind you
