I'd Rather Be Sorry
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Close your eyes close that door you don't have to worry anymore
Cause I'll be your baby tonight
Dim the lights draw the shades honey you don't have to be afraid
Caue I'll be your baby tonight everything's all right
Old mockingbird's gonna sail away we'll just forget it
And the big bad moon's gonna shine like a spoon
We're gonna let it you won't regret it
Kick your shoes off mama have no fear bring your sweet self right over here
Cause I'll be your baby tonight
[ harmonica + dobro ]
Cause I'll be your baby tonight
