[Verse]
C           F        C
Over by the wildwood club
Am
Hot summer night
Dm
We lay in the tall grass
G
Til the mornin' light come shinning
C           F       C     Am
If I had my way I'd never get the urge to roam
Dm                            G
Sometimes I serve  my country sometimes I stay at home
           C           F              C
Just don't put me in a frame upon the mantel
      C             F     C       Dm
Where memories turn dusty old and grey
      G
Don't leave me alone in the twilight
G7                                 C  F C G Am F C G C
Twilight is the loneliest time of day
C            F      C       Am
Never gave a second thought never crossed my mind
Dm                                G
To what is right and what is not  I'm not the judgin' kind
C                  F        C          Am
I would steal your darkness and storms from your skies
Dm                            G
But we all got certain trials burnin' up inside
      C          F            C
Don't send me no distant salutations
   C     F         C         Dm
Or silly souvenirs from far away
      G
Don't leave me alone in the twilight
G7                                    C
Twilight is the loneliest time of the day
