Stay Loose

Gordon Lightfoot

Continues after the ad
Key: 
[INTRO:] G      Am    D  G

[VERSE 1:]

If you've got a heartache
Of the kind that will not pass by

Am


Even if you don't see the end

        D               G
Of what lies beyond the bend

Don't stay that way

                    C/G   G   Am
It's all in a day believe me

                             D
Even the best of dreams must end

Even so it grieves me


[CHORUS:]

C    D      Bm7   C
Stay loose, don't fight it

       D        Bm7     Em
Let it take you all the way

    C       D      Bm7      C
And if it's wrong, you will right it

       D           Bm7    C    G
Do not waste these hours away


[VERSE 2:]

How many times have I told you

Continues after the ad
                               Am
These are the tears I've shed

Could it be that I need help

      D                  G
Is it maybe, I've come undone

And one thing more

                       C/G G   Am
You know it don't come ea__sy

                              D
Even the best of friends must part

Even so it grieves me


[CHORUS:]

C    D      Bm7   C
Stay loose, don't fight it

         D      Bm7 Em
Let love take a holiday

C       D      Bm7          C
If it's wrong, you're gonna right it

       D           Bm7    C    G
Do not waste these hours away


[VERSE 3:]

Soon the storm will be over

                                 Am
And the clouds will all pass by

To be insane beyond belief

       D                G
Is sometimes the best relief

And one thing sure

                    C/G G   Am
Love never did come ea__sy

                             D
Even the best of dreams must end

Even so it grieves me


[CHORUS:]

C    D      Bm7   C
Stay loose, don't fight it

       D        Bm7     Em
Let it take you all the way

    C       D      Bm7      C
And if it's wrong, you will right it

       D           Bm7    C    G
Do not waste these hours away



[INSTRUMENTAL:] G      Am    D


[CHORUS:]

C    D      Bm7   C
Stay loose, don't fight it

         D      Bm7 Em
Let love take a holiday

C       D      Bm7          C
If it's wrong, you're gonna right it

       D           Bm7    C    G
Do not waste these hours away
