	        G	C	G 
Don't send me no distant salutations 
G		Em			Am 
or silly souvenirs from far away 
D7 
Don't leave me alone in the twilight 
D7			D			G 
Twilight is the loneliest time a day 
G	C               G 
Over by the wildwood 
                 Em 
Where young lovers go 
Am 
Sparks flashig in the night 
D7 
Thrue colours show 
If I had my way I'd never 
get the urge to roam 
A young man serves his country 
and an old man guards the home 

G                 C                   G 
Don't put me in a frame upon the mantel 
                    C  Em         Am 
'Fore memories turn dusty old and grey 
D7 
Don't leave me alone in the twilight 
                 D                G 
Twilight is the loneliest time a day 

C G D Em  C Cm7 D G 

I could take the darkness oh 
Storms in the skies 
But we all got certain trials 
burnin' up inside 
you only hurt yourself 
you dont know what you doing 
trying to make it all alone 
who you think you foolin 
dont hand me nothin i can hold 
or nothin that i can gave away 
dont leave me alone in the twilight 
cos twilight is a lonliest time a day
