Standard (EADGBE)

 1. Strophe:

I saw your face in a photo today

  Took me back to a time that I loved so

  One thing remains that still gives me pain

  The fact that I never got to say don´t go

Refrain

Don´t go

  Don´t go Don´t go

2.Strophe: Am

Dark days fell upon this town that year

  I remember the sordid talk and tears

  A scarlet letter was sewn onto you long ago

  But the way you felt no one will ever know

  Turn on the radio and that song would play

  Oh how the irony when I look back on that day

Refrain

Don´t go

  Don´t go Don´t go

3.Strophe: Am

Late at night you would tell me that it would all be fine

  Realized that our doubts weren´t just mine

  We would sit and contempate just what to do

  But I never thought it would be without you

  Turn on the radio and that song would play

  Oh how the irony when I look back on that day

Refrain

Don´t go

  Don´t go Don´t go

 4.Strophe:

Now you´re gone so I´ll say

  Our lives you changed

  And I know my friend

  that I´ll see you once again
