[Verse]
           C         D
I know you loved him ■
            G   D Em
A long time ago ■ ■ 
               Am7 
Even now in my arms
D                      G   
■ You still want him I know
            C         D
But darling this time ■
         G        D   Em7
Let your memories die ■  
                 Am7     D
When you hold me tonight ■
            G         C
Don't close your eyes ■


[Chorus]
G                  C   
■ Don't close your eyes
          D 
Let it be me
                   G  
Don't pretend it's him
D       Em7    
In some fantasy
             Am7                D 
Darling just once let yesterday go
                G        
And you'll find more love
D                Em7  
Than you've ever known
             Am7  
Just hold me tight
         Am      D      
When you love me tonight
                     C   
And don't close your eyes

              Am7       D
Lyin' here in your arms ■
                G        
Knowing he's in your mind
                  C        D
But I keep hoping some day ■
                G   D     Em
That you'll see the light ■

Let it be me tonight
