Before the Sunrise
Skeeter Davis & Bobby Bare
Album: Tunes For Two
[Intro]
D D
[Verse]
D
I guess I'd better try again 
                               Em
To straighten up my tie again before I leave
A7
The party's over the laughter's died 
                                        D
There's no one in this room but you and me
D
Though your lips are honey sweet 
                                          Em
And you're so close that I can feel your heartbeat
A7
Tears would fill somebody's eyes 
                                     D
If we don't make it home before the sunrise
G              A7
We could make excuses 
G                 A7            D
Blame it on late hours and the wine
G           A7
Anything we say or do 
G                        E7           A7
Won't keep the sun from comin' up on time
      D
So I guess I'd better turn and go 
                                            Em
There's one thing that you should know babe you're the one
     A7
It?s not that I don't want you to 
                                              D
Cause you know that you could stay until the dawn
D
When daylight is breaking 
                             Em
We?re not home whenever day awakens
A7
Tears will fill somebody's eyes 
                                     D
If we don't make it home before the sunrise
[Outro]
A7
Tears will fill somebody's eyes 
                                     D
If we don't make it home before the sunrise
