Take the ribbon from your hair,
  5   5   -5    5   5  -4  4 
Shake it loose and let it fall,
-4 5    -5  -4 -4 4   -3
Layin' soft upon- my skin.
 -5  -5   5  -4  4  -4   5 
Like the shadows on the wall.

 4    5  -5   5   -4 5   3
Come and lay down by my side
  5    5  -5 5   5  -4    4 
'till the early morning light
-4   5  -5 -4  -4  4    -3
All I'm takin' is your time.
 -5  -5  5   -4    4     -3   4
Help me make it through the night.

I don't care who's right or wrong, 
-7  7   -8  7   7  7 -6 6
I don't try to understand.
-6  -7   7  7  7    7 -7 -6
Let the devil take tomorrow. 
 -6   -7  7  -6  -6 -5   6
Lord, tonight I need a friend.

Yesterday is dead and gone
 5    5 -5  5   5  -4   4 
And tomorrow's out of sight.
-4   5   -5  -4 -4  4 -3
And it's sad to be alone. 
 -5  -5  5   -4    4     -3   4
Help me make it through the night.
