twilight ( early alternative version )
A D A
don’t send me no distant salutations
A D E
or silly souvenirs from far away
E
don’t leave me alone in the twilight
D E A
twilight is the loneliest time a day

A D A
over by the wildwood
F#m
where young lovers go
Bm
sparks flashin in the night
E
true colors show
A D A F#m
if i had my way i’d never get the urge to roam
Bm E
but a young man serves his country and an old man guard the home

( same pattern for rest of song )

don’t put me in a frame upon the mantel
’fore memories turn dusty old and grey
don’t leave me alone in the twilight
twilight is the loneliest time a day

i can face the darkness
oh the storm in the sky
but we all got certain trials burnin up inside
youll only hurt yourself
you dont know what your doin
tryin to make it all alone
who do you think youre foolin

D A E A
mmm mmm mmm mmm

dont hand me nothing i cant hold
or nothing that i cant give away
and don’t leave me alone in the twilight
twilight is the loneliest time a day
