DON'T CLOSE YOUR EYES   Keith Whitley

G                 C      D         G

I know you loved him a long time a-go

Em              C    D                    G 

Even now in my arms you still want him I know

(G)               C    D                 G

But darling this time let your memories die

Em                    C    D                G

When you hold me to-night Don't close your eyes



CHORUS:

G                 C             D 

Don't close your eyes Let it be me

(D)                 G                Em

Don't pretend it's him in some fanta-sy

              C                  D

Darling just once Let yesterday go

(D)                   G                     Em

And you'll find more love then you've ever known

              Am                      D

Just hold me tight When you love me tonight

                      Em  C  D  G

And Don't close your eyes



LEAD

G                   C     D                  G

Maybe I've been a fool Holding on all this time

Em                  C     D                    G

Right here in your arms Knowing he's in your heart

(G)                     C   D                   G

But I keep hoping some-day that you'll see the light

Em        C      D               G 

Baby to-night, don't close your eyes



Go to chorus.
