D                                                 G
Hold back the rushing minutes...Make the wind lie still
A7                                              D
Don't let the moonlight shine across the lonely hill
D7                                    G
Dry all the raindrops   hold back the sun
A7                               D
My world has ended ... my baby's gone

[Verse]
     A7                             G              D
The milkman whistles sofltly  as he comes up to my door
         A7                               G            D
And the mailman bring the letters by just like he did before
D                                 D7                   G
They seem so busy all day long as if though's nothing wrong
               A7                                    D
Don't they the know the world has ended... my baby's gone.

[Chorus]
[Instrumental]
D7                                    G
Dry all the raindrops   hold back the sun
A7                               D
My world has ended ... my baby's gone

[Verse]
  A7                                    G             D
I wake up sometimes in the night...And realize you're gone
     A7                               G               D
And then I  toss upon my bed  ...And wait for  day to come
D                                     D7           G
I tried to tell my lonely heart...It must go  on a-lone
       A7                                      D
But it cries the world has ended...  my baby's gone

[Chorus]
D                               G
Hold back the rushing minutes...Make the wind lie  still
A7                                              D
Don't let the moonlight shine across the lonely hill
D7                      G
Dry all the raindrops   hold back the sun
A7                            D
My world has ended  my baby's gone

A7                            D  
My world has ended  my baby's gone
