Save Tonight Tab

by Eagle Eye Cherry


This is a slightly easier version than the others on here. It isn't in the same key as 
real song, but it has the same chord progressions. It doesn't use the F chord, which is 
for beginners who haven't mastered barres yet!

P.S. Each "save" and "come" in the chorus is actually sung during the previous line's D 
however, for ease of reading, I placed them on the next line. Otherwise, I've tried to 
every word sung with the accurate chord played at that point.

Enjoy!

Verse:
                          
Go on and close   the curtains
                               
'Cause all we need   is candlelight
                              
You and me    and a bottle of wine
                         
Gonna hold   you tonight


                         
Well we know   I'm going away
                                    
And how I wish,   I wish it weren't   so
                                
So take this wine   and drink with me
                     
Let's delay our misery


Chorus:
          
Save tonight
                      
And fight the break of dawn
              
Come    tomorrow
                
Tomorrow I'll be gone


          
Save tonight
                      
And fight the break of dawn
              
Come    tomorrow
                
Tomorrow I'll be gone


Verse:
                       
There's a log   on the fire
                          
And it burns   like me for you
                            
Tomorrow comes   with one desire
                          
To take me away, oh it's  true


                          
It ain't easy   to say goodbye
                              
Darling please   don't start to cry
                                      
'Cause girl you know I've got to go,   oh
                           
And Lord I wish it wasn't so


Chorus:
          
Save tonight
                      
And fight the break of dawn
              
Come    tomorrow
                
Tomorrow I'll be gone


          
Save tonight
                      
And fight the break of dawn
              
Come    tomorrow
                
Tomorrow I'll be gone


Bridge:
                       
Tomorrow comes to take me away
                              
   I wish that I, that I could stay
                              
Girl you know I've got to go,  oh
                           
And Lord I wish it wasn't so


Chorus (x 2):
          
Save tonight
                      
And fight the break of dawn
              
Come    tomorrow
                
Tomorrow I'll be gone


          
Save tonight
                      
And fight the break of dawn
              
Come    tomorrow
                
Tomorrow I'll be gone


Ending:
                   
      Tomorrow I'll be gone
                   
      Tomorrow I'll be gone
                   
      Tomorrow I'll be gone
                   
      Tomorrow I'll be gone
