Krauss Alison - Stay guitar tab

Stay, as performed by Alison Krauss

written by Allyson Taylor-Larry Byrom

charted by Bo Frazer

with help from Emer M. Doherty

-------------------------------------------

Notes: Alison does this in F#, (capo on fret #4)

If you can play the style where you hit the bass string and then

strum, then (on both verse and chorus) hit the bass notes in the

D to Em progression in a descending scale; i.e.,

D A/7 Bm A G D/3 Em so the bass notes are:

D C# B A G F# E

Stay

Verse1:

D A Bm

Where have you been,

A G

My long lost friend?

D Em A

It's good to see you again.

D A Bm

Come and sit for a while;

A G

I've missed your smile.

D Em A

Today the past is goodbye.

F Em D

Time can't erase

F Em D A

A lover's embrace.

Bm

Can't you hear it calling?

E

A new day dawning

G F G

You were longing to find.

Verse2:

Love's taken you far

Away from my heart,

And I've been here all alone.

Have your eyes failed to find

What took you from mine,

A vision that's faded through time?

But you sail away,

Farther than a summer's day,

Cause you heard it calling,

A new day dawning,

You were longing to find.

Chorus:

D A G D G

There is a way to make you stay.

D Em A

Darlin don't turn away.

D A G D G

Don't doubt your heart, and keep us apart;

D F G

I'm right where you are.

D

Stay.

(solo over verse)
