Stay Teclado

	   
 
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   A7   Bm  A  G  D  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. 
 

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.
