(1)there is nothing that is wrong in wanting you to      stay here with me
(2)the sun aint nearly on the rise and we still got the moon and stars above
(3)i long to see the morning light             coloring your face so dreamily
 
   A                                                                    D
 i know you got somewhere to go but wont you make your self at home and stay with me
underneath the velvet skies           love is all that matters wont you stay with me
so dont you go and say goodbye        you can lay your worries down and stay with me
 
             E
and dont you ever leave

Good tab but I would also play the F# note (Low E string, 2nd fret) with my thumb, making it a A/F# chord- I'm not sure if that's the way E.C. played it, but that how it sounds on the record.

nice

Lack of formatting. It's an easy 3 chord song. But this is not formatted well for easy reading. Great tune to tab out, nonetheless. Thank you!
