 If I don’t see  you again
 It was a hell of a ride
 Don’t need to say  lets be friends
 Don’t need to promise you’ll write
 We rode that train  through the night
 And never cared where it went
 If I don’t see  you again
 If I don’t see  you again
 We ran a whole other race
 Two strangers meet  on the road
 And find their time and their place
 We never once  had to lie
 We’d passed the age of consent
 If I don’t see  you again
 I know its crazy  out there
 I hated sleeping  around
 I went out looking  for love
 And never liked  what I found
 Don’t pay to make  it alone
 God knows it’s lonely  out there
 I made it once  on my own
 And hardly anyone  cared
 If I don’t see  you again
 Who you gonna run  to baby
 Who you gonna hide behind
 When the nights get suddenly  cold
 Who’s gonna hold you who’s  gonna know
 Who will you go to?
Who  you gonna call if it ain’t me
 When your feeling lost and there’s nobody out there
Looking  for you
 What will you do?
Where  will you go?
 If I don’t see  you again
 If I don’t see  you again
 You made it happen somehow
 I think I gave  up on life
 But I feel better right now
 Something you said  turned me round
 Don’t even know what you meant
 If I don’t see  you again
 And at the end  of the day
 I hated sleeping  alone
 There’s nothing worse  when you’re lost
 And you don’t wanna  go home
 Its gonna work  out some way
 I just don’t wanna  be found
 I’m waiting here  round the bend
 And I’ll be hanging  around
 If I don’t see  you again
 Who am I kidding I’m going  nowhere
 I can’t even get through an hour
 Without you should  be ashamed
 Just wanna hear you calling  my name
Two  of us missed connections
 Guess we must have somehow
 Missed something more
 Cos we’re  here alone
 I know we’re together but too  far apart
 To know how to get back home
 Its time for saying  goodbye
 Cos if I stay  for too long
 You’d get to know  me too well
 And find that something  was wrong
 The time is perfect  to go
 Before the curtain  descends
 Right now when both  of us know
 That everything’s got  to end
 If I don’t see  you again
 What’s it gonna come  too baby
 Who you gonna hide behind
 When the nights get filled  up with doom
 Looking to run
 You run  out of room
 And will  you be the one to save me
 Doesn’t look like the future is clearing
Need  you to hear me playing a tune
 When nobody  hears me
 I end up playing to the moon
 Its time for saying  goodbye
 Cos if I stay  for too long
 You’d get to know  me too well
 And find that something  was wrong
 The time is perfect  to go
 Before the curtain  descends
 Right now when both  of us know
 That everything’s got  to end
 If I don’t see  you again
 If I don’t see  you again
 Somehow we both made it through
 I would have gave  up on life
 Before I gave up on you
 You went and turned  me around
 Could be was something you said
 I couldn’t make out  the sound
 I didn’t care  what it meant
 If I don’t see you again
 If I don’t see you again
 If I don’t see you again

Readable chord sheet for If I Don't See You Again by Neil Diamond

If I don’t s[D]ee you again [D]
It was a hell of a ride
Don’t need to s[G]ay lets be friends
Don’t need to promise you’ll write
We rode that tr[A]ain through the night
And never cared where it went
If I don’t s[D]ee you again

If I don’t s[D]ee you again
We ran a whole other race
Two strangers m[G]eet on the road
And find their time and their place
We never o[A]nce had to lie
We’d passed the age of consent
If I don’t s[D]ee you again

I know its cr[D]azy out there
I hated sl[G]eeping around
I went out l[D]ooking for love
And never l[A]iked what I found
Don’t pay to m[D]ake it alone
God knows it’s l[G]onely out there
I made it [D]once on my own
And hardly [A]anyone cared
If I don’t s[D]ee you again

Who you gonna r[D]un to baby
Who you gonna hide behind
When the nights get s[G]uddenly cold
Who’s gonna hold you wh[A]o’s gonna know
Who will you go to?
[D]Who you gonna call if it ain’t me
When your feeling lost and there’s nobody out there
[G]Looking for you
What will you do?
[A]Where will you go?
If I don’t s[D]ee you again

If I don’t s[D]ee you again
You made it happen somehow
I think I g[G]ave up on life
But I feel better right now
Something you s[A]aid turned me round
Don’t even know what you meant
If I don’t s[D]ee you again

And at the [D]end of the day
I hated sl[G]eeping alone
There’s nothing w[D]orse when you’re lost
And you don’t w[A]anna go home
Its gonna w[D]ork out some way
I just don’t w[G]anna be found
I’m waiting h[D]ere round the bend
And I’ll be h[A]anging around
If I don’t s[D]ee you again

Who am I kidding I’m g[D]oing nowhere
I can’t even get through an hour
Without you sh[G]ould be ashamed
Just wanna hear you c[A]alling my name
[D]Two of us missed connections
Guess we must have somehow
Missed something more
Cos w[G]e’re here alone
I know we’re together but t[A]oo far apart
To know how to get back h[D]ome

Its time for s[D]aying goodbye
Cos if I st[G]ay for too long
You’d get to kn[D]ow me too well
And find that s[A]omething was wrong
The time is p[D]erfect to go
Before the c[G]urtain descends
Right now when b[D]oth of us know
That everything’s g[A]ot to end
If I don’t s[D]ee you again

What’s it gonna c[D]ome too baby
Who you gonna hide behind
When the nights get f[G]illed up with doom
Looking to run
You r[A]un out of room
And w[D]ill you be the one to save me
Doesn’t look like the future is clearing
[G]Need you to hear me playing a tune
When n[A]obody hears me
I end up playing to the m[D]oon

Its time for s[D]aying goodbye
Cos if I st[G]ay for too long
You’d get to kn[D]ow me too well
And find that s[A]omething was wrong
The time is p[D]erfect to go
Before the c[G]urtain descends
Right now when b[D]oth of us know
That everything’s g[A]ot to end
If I don’t s[D]ee you again

If I don’t s[D]ee you again
Somehow we both made it through
I would have g[G]ave up on life
Before I gave up on you
You went and t[A]urned me around
Could be was something you said
I couldn’t make [G]out the sound
I didn’t c[A]are what it meant
If I don’t see you ag[D]ain      [G]
If I don’t see you ag[D]ain      [G]
If I don’t see you ag[D]ain
