Stay With Me Tonight

Gm F Eb Cm D Gm

Gm                              Cm
The streetlamps try to do their best
                D            Gm
But the light's faded in the west
Gm                                Cm
It's like a night straight out of Poe
            D          Gm
And one I'd hate to be alone
                        Cm
But with my ego at full mast
         D               Gm  D
I cannot bring myself to ask you
Gm   Cm
Baby stay with me tonight
       D
It's a while before the light will win
        Gm                       D
And I'd love to have you here to tuck me in oh
Gm    Cm
Baby I hate to be needy
              D                    Gm
It's just the shadows seem kind of seedy
        D                             Gm
And I'm begging you to stay here with me
Gm                            Cm
I never liked those girls who cling
          D       Gm
Needing a man for everything
                           Cm
With batted eyes and pouts intent

     D                 Gm
They bask in attention spent
                              Cm
But one thing I envy in their bask
              D           Gm  D
They wouldn't hesitate to ask you

Gm   Cm
Baby stay with me tonight
       D
It's a while before the light will win
        Gm                       D
And I'd love to have you here to tuck me in oh
Gm   Cm
Baby I hate to be needy
              D                    Gm
It's just the shadows seem kind of seedy
        D                             Gm
And I'm begging you to stay here with me

Gm                          Cm
I've been the same girl all along
    D                     Gm
Too independent proud and strong
                          Cm
More like an island and a rock
            D           Gm
Than like a pillow or a dock
                                 Cm
But sometimes strength is just a mask
               D                 Gm    D
And that's why tonight my love I ask you
Gm   Cm
Baby stay with me tonight
D
It's a while before the light will win
Gm                               D
And I'd love to have you here to tuck me in oh
Gm    Cm
Baby I hate to be needy
              D                    Gm
It's just the shadows seem kind of seedy
        D                             Gm
And I'm begging you to stay here with me
Gm   Cm
Baby stay with me tonight
D
It's a while before the light will win
Gm                               D
And I'd love to have you here to tuck me in oh
Gm    Cm
Baby I hate to be needy
              D                    Gm
It's just the shadows seem kind of seedy
        D                             Gm
And I'm begging you to stay here with me
