Before I Go

         F        C        Bb
Before I go can I hold you close?
            F           C     Bb
'Cause your light fills up my soul
         F       C           Bb
And it's hard to explain the reasons why
      F             C     F
Why I just need you by my side


[Verse 1]
C             Bb              F
Framed in the doorway by the first morning light
C         Bb     F
Heart was heavy, bags by your side
C          Bb            F
She looked over, she was trying hard to hide
            G       Bb       F
That hollow feeling she felt inside


[Chorus]
         F        C        Bb
Before I go can I hold you close?
            F           C     Bb
'Cause your light fills up my soul

And it's hard to explain the reasons why
      F             C     F
Why I just need you by my side


[Verse 2]
C               Bb                   F
There's time to walk away, there was nothing left to say
C                Bb              F
She allowed that tear to finally trickle down her face
C              Bb                     F
He turned and tipped his hat, said, "Angel, now you be safe,
            G        Bb                  F
There ain't nothing ever gonna take your place."


[Chorus]
         F        C        Bb
Before I go can I hold you close?
            F           C     Bb
'Cause your light fills up my soul
         F        C            Bb
And it's plain to see on these lonely nights
      F             C     F
Why I just need you by my side

G               Bb                F
  Sometimes you feel down when it rains
G          Bb             C
  Then you see the colors change
                                F
  And the rainbow guides you home


[Chorus]
F     C        Bb
Can I hold you close?
F                             C           Bb
'Cause that's the safest place I've ever known
         F         C            Bb
And it's plain to see on these lonely nights
      F             C     F
Why I just need you by my side
