Softly 
        E7        A       Bm7 
I will leave you softly 
                 E7             A 
For my heart would break

If you should wake and see me go

Long before your arms can beg me stay 
              Em7     C     G7      A     Bm7 
For one more hour    or one more day 
       E7       A    Dm 
After all the years
