[G]So it comes to the end of the [Dsus2/F#]day
[Em]I'm checking out of my hot[D]el room today.
[Am]It's been two years since I've s[G]een your face
The [D]girl beside me reminds me of how you taste.
[G]Since I've seen you I've been [Dsus2/F#]beaten down and bruised
[Em]And every day I'm feelin' m[D]ore and more misused.
[Am]I never thought that I would [G]be without your love
[D]Years gone by you're still the one I'm thinkin' of
CHORUS:
[C]Sweet Savannah, you sh[G]ine so bright.
[D]May the evening bring you're f[G]avorite night.
[C]Sweet Savannah, you been g[G]one so long
[Am]But I've got to move [D]on...
[G]It's gettin' cold, I put my [Dsus2/F#]jacket on your back
[Em]And we smoke a cigarette, the last o[D]ne in the pack.
[Am]I still remember e[G]xactly what you said...
[D]You had demons that you couldn't put to bed.
[G]Now I'm leavin', yeah, I'm [Dsus2/F#]movin' out west
[Em]And it's time for us to lay our h[D]istory to rest.
[Am]I still remember a t[G]eardrop in your eye
[D]But you know I couldn't stand to see you cry...
CHORUS:
[C]Sweet Savannah, you sh[G]ine so bright.
[D]May the evening bring you're f[G]avorite night.
[C]Sweet Savannah, you been g[G]one so long
[Am]But I've got to move[D] on...
[Am] [D] [Am] [D] [Am] [D]
[G]So now I close on this H[Dsus2/F#]ollywood night
Where this c[Em]ounterculture cultivates an emptiness inside.
[Am]Would it be different if you were s[G]till here in my life?
[D]Would I be sober and would you be my wife?
CHORUS:
[C]Sweet Savannah, you sh[G]ine so bright.
[D]May the evening bring you're f[G]avorite night.
[C]Sweet Savannah, you been g[G]one so long
[Am]But I've got to move [D]on...
