Stay, as performed by Alison Krauss
written by Allyson Taylor-Larry Byrom
charted by Bo Frazer
with help from Emer M. Doherty
-------------------------------------------
Notes: Alison does this in F#, (capo on fret #4)
If you can play the style where you hit the bass string and then
strum, then (on both verse and chorus) hit the bass notes in the
D to Em progression in a descending scale; i.e.,
D A/7 Bm A G D/3 Em so the bass notes are:
D C# B A G F# E
Stay
Verse1:
D A Bm
Where have you been,
A G
My long lost friend?
D Em A
It's good to see you again.
D A Bm
Come and sit for a while;
A G
I've missed your smile.
D Em A
Today the past is goodbye.
F Em D
Time can't erase
F Em D A
A lover's embrace.
Bm
Can't you hear it calling?
E
A new day dawning
G F G
You were longing to find.
Verse2:
Love's taken you far
Away from my heart,
And I've been here all alone.
Have your eyes failed to find
What took you from mine,
A vision that's faded through time?
But you sail away,
Farther than a summer's day,
Cause you heard it calling,
A new day dawning,
You were longing to find.
Chorus:
D A G D G
There is a way to make you stay.
D Em A
Darlin don't turn away.
D A G D G
Don't doubt your heart, and keep us apart;
D F G
I'm right where you are.
D
Stay.
(solo over verse)
(repeat Chorus)
