N/C                        A
Take the ribbon from your hair
              
Shake it loose

          
 and let fall
              
Layin soft aga

        
inst my skin
              
Like the shado

           
ws on the wall

N/C                      A
Come and lay down by my side
              
'Til the early

          
 morning light
              
All I'm takin 

         
is your time
              
Help me make i

              
t through the 

 
night

[Chorus]
              
I don't care w

              
hat's right or

 
 wrong
              
I don't try to

       
 understand
              
Let the devil 

         
take tomorrow
              
Lord tonight I

             
 need a friend
              
Yesterday is d

        
ead and gone
              
And tomorrow's

         
 out of sight
              
And it's bad t

     
o be alone
              
Help me make i

              
t through the 


night
