Em                 G
Down by the water, under the willow 
A                   Bm
Sits a lone ranger, minding the willow 
Em                     G    Em
He and his wife, once lived happily 
A                   Bm
Planted a seed, that grew through the reeds 

C                            G
Summers and winters, through snowy Decembers 
Bm               Em
Sat by the water close to the embers 
C                           G            Bm        D
Missing out the lives that they once had before 

Chorus:
            C
I WOULDN'T LEAVE YOU 
        G
I WOULD HOLD YOU 
         D         Am
WHEN THE A ST DAY COMES 
            C
WHAT IF YOU NEED ME 
          G
WON'T YOU HOLD ME 
       Bm         Em     Am
ON THE A ST DAY, OUR A ST DAY 

Verse 2:
Em                 G
Mr. & Mrs., dreamed of a willow 
A                   Bm
Carving their names, into their willow 
Em                     G    Em
If he had spoken, love would return 
A                   Bm
spoken inside, too soft to be heard 

C                            G
Summers and winters, through snowy Decembers 
Bm               Em
Sat by the water, remembering embers 
C                           G            Bm        D
Missing out the lives that they once had before 


Chorus:
            C
I WOULDN'T LEAVE YOU 
        G
I WOULD HOLD YOU 
         D         Am
WHEN THE A ST DAY COMES 
            C
WHAT IF YOU NEED ME 
          G
WON'T YOU HOLD ME 
       Bm         Em     Am
ON THE A ST DAY, OUR A ST DAY 


C  Em  D  G  Am
AHHHHH, AHHHHH...
C  Em  B  Am
AHHHHH, AHHHHH...

G                                 D
Somewhere the timing will all come together 
    G                        D
The mishaps will turn into sunny Decembers
     C            D         Em              Bm         Am 
The lovers will be able to find their willow  


Chorus: (quietly single strum chords)
D              C
I WOULDN'T LEAVE YOU 
        G
I WOULD HOLD YOU 
         D         Am
WHEN THE A ST DAY COMES
