Don’t Ever Take Yourself Away

[Chorus]
C G7
Don’t ever take yourself away
G7
Don’t ever take yourself
F C
To a place where I can’t find you
C G7
Don’t ever take yourself away
G7
I will never leave you

Will never deceive you
F C
I’ll be right there walkin’ behind you

[Verse 1]
C G7
Dearest, I think you’re the one
G7
I can’t imagine anybody doin’
F C
More to me than you do

[Verse 2]
C G7
Dearest, if it’s your heart that I won
G7
There’s no need for blame

And no reason to be ashamed
F C
Of that place where we stand in the sun

[Chorus]
C G7
Don’t ever take yourself away
G7
Don’t ever take yourself
F C
To a place where I can’t find you
C G7
Don’t ever take yourself away
G7
I will never leave you

I will never deceive you
F C
I’ll be right there walkin’ behind you

[Verse 3]
C G7
Dearest, let us not drift apart
G7
It wouldn’t be wise

It wouldn’t be civilized
F C
It wouldn’t be smart

[Verse 4]
C G7
Time heals a broken heart
G7
You’ve been hurt

You’ve been left in the dirt
F C
But you still look brand new to me

[Chorus]
C G7
Don’t ever take yourself away
G7
Don’t ever take yourself
F C
To a place where I can’t find you
C G7
Don’t ever take yourself away
G7
I will never leave you

I will never deceive you
F C
I’ll be right there walkin’ behind you

[Verse 5]
C G7
Dearest, you’re the answer to my prayers
G7
Words can’t express

If my heart would confess
F C
What you mean to me

[Verse 6]
C G7
Dearest, I can’t help knowin’ that you’re the best
G7
I don’t have to feel you to know that you’re real
F C
You’re more than a dream to me

[Chorus]
C G7
Don’t ever take yourself away
G7
Don’t ever take yourself
F C
To a place where I can’t find you
C G7
Don’t ever take yourself away
G7
I will never leave you

I will never deceive you
F C
I’ll be right there walking behind you
