Don’t (Em7)say

good (Am7)night to love,

it may (Gm7)nev er

be the (D)same

a (G)gain.

Don’t say it!

Don’t say it!

Say an y thing but (D)don’t say good night to night!

Don’t say it!

Don’t say it!

Say an y thing but (D)don’t say good night to night!

Don’t say it!

Don’t say it!

You can say an y thing, but (D)don’t say good night to night!

Don’t say it!

Don’t say it!

Say an y thing but (D)don’t say good night to night!

Don’t say it!

Don’t say it!

Say an y thing but (D)don’t say good night to night!

Don’t (Em7)get

too (Am7)tired for love,

don’t (Em7)let

it (Am7)end.

Don’t (Em7)say

good (Am7)night to love,

it’s a (G)feel ing

Don’t say it!

Don’t say it!

Say an y thing but (D)don’t say good night to night!

Don’t say it!

Don’t say it!

Say an y thing but (D)don’t say good night to night!

(D)don’t say good night...
