E Hold back the rushing minutes A Make the wind lie still B7 E Donʼt let the moonlight shine across the lonely hill A Dry all the raindrops hold back the sun B7 E My world has ended my babyʼs gone B7 A E The milkman whistles sofltly as he comes up to my door B7 A E And the mailman bring the letters by just like he did before E E7 A They seem so busy all day long as if thereʼs nothing wrong B7 E Donʼt they the know the world has ended my babyʼs gone E Hold back the rushing minutes A Make the wind lie still B7 E Donʼt let the moonlight shine across the lonely hill A Dry all the raindrops hold back the sun B7 E My world has ended my babyʼs gone B7 I wake up sometimes in the night A E And realize youʼre gone B7 And then I toss upon my bed A E And wait for day to come E I tried to tell my lonely heart E7 A It must go on alone B7 E But it cries the world has ended my babyʼs gone E Hold back the rushing minutes A Make the wind lie still B7 E Donʼt let the moonlight shine across the lonely hill A Dry all the raindrops hold back the sun B7 E My world has ended my babyʼs gone F#m B7 E My world has ended my babyʼs gone
