D
Hold back the rushing minutes
G
Make the wind lie  still
A7                                              D
Don't let the moonlight shine across the lonely hill
                        G
Dry all the raindrops   hold back the sun
A7                            D
My world has ended  my baby's gone
    A7                              G              D
The milkman whistles sofltly  as he comes up to my door
        A7                                G           D
And the mailman bring the letters by just like he did before
D                                 D7                  G
They seem so busy all day long as if though's nothing wrong
               A7                                  D
Don't they the know the world has ended my baby's  gone
D
Hold back the rushing minutes
G
Make the wind lie  still
A7                                              D
Don't let the moonlight shine across the lonely hill
                        G
Dry all the raindrops   hold back the sun
A7                            D
My world has ended  my baby's gone


SOLO

  A7
I wake up sometimes in the night
    G              D 
And realize you're gone
    A7
And then I  toss upon my bed  
     G               D
And wait for  day to come
D
I tried to tell my lonely heart
   D7           G
It must go  on alone
       A7                                   D
But it cries the world has ended  my baby's gone
D
Hold back the rushing minutes
G
Make the wind lie  still
A7                                              D
Don't let the moonlight shine across the lonely hill
                        G
Dry all the raindrops   hold back the sun
A7                            D
My world has ended  my baby's gone
Em           A7     G         D  
My world has ended  my baby's gone
