Until It's Time For You To Go — Buffy Sainte-Marie
Chords and lyrics for Until It's Time For You To Go by Buffy Sainte-Marie (key of C).
Verse 1
Beautiful ballad about a love that cannot last. It’s been covered by Barbra
Streisand, Elvis Presley, and Neil Diamond to name just three, but for me
Buffy's
versions are always the best of all!
Verse 1
=======
You're not a [G]dream you're not an [G/Gb]Angel you're a [G/F]man[E7]
I'm not a [Am]queen I'm a [Am/maj7]woman take my [Am7]hand[D/Gb]
We'll make a [G]space in the [G/Gb]lives that we [G/F]planned[E7]
And here we'll [Am]stay until it's [D/Gb]time for you to [G]go
Verse 2
=======
Yes we're [G]different worlds [G/Gb]a-part we're not the [G/F]same[E7]
We laughed and [Am]played at the [Am/maj7]start like in a [Am7]game[D/Gb]
You could have [G]stayed outside my [G/Gb]heart but in you [G/F]came [E7]
And here you'll [Am]stay until it's [D/Gb]time for you to [G]go
Refrain 1
=========
[Ab] [F] Don't ask [G]why
[Ab] [F] Don't ask [G]how
[B7] Don't ask [Em]forever
[Am] Love me [D]now
Verse 3
=======
This love of [G]mine had no [G/Gb]be-ginning it had no [G/F]end[E7]
I was an [Am]oak now I'm a [Am/maj7]willow now I can [Am7]bend[D/Gb]
And though I'll [G]never in my [G/Gb]life see you [G/F]a-gain[E7]
Still I'll [Am]stay until it's [D/Gb]time for you to [G]go
Refrain 2
=========
[Ab] [F] Don't ask [G]why of me
[Ab] [F] Don't ask [G]how of me
[B7] Don't ask [Em]forever of me
[Am] Love me love me [D]now
Verse 4
=======
You're not a [G]dream you're not an [G/Gb]Angel you're a [G/F]man[E7]
I'm not a [Am]queen I'm a [Am/maj7]woman take my [Am7]hand[D/Gb]
We'll make a [G]space in the [G/Gb]lives that we [G/F]planned[E7]
And here we'll [Am]stay until it's [D/Gb]time for you to [G]go
And here we'll [Am]stay until it's [D/Gb]time for you to [G]go
Refrain / End
=============
[Ab]oooh [F]ooh [G]oohhh
I hope I've done it justice!
