Hi Ritchie,

Just accidentally came across this thread again!

"Stay One More Night" was written by Martin Francis.

His website seems to have been hacked but there are some pages archived, eg.

Archived: Martin Francis website 2017

I need to update the links on this page so they don't send people to a site selling shoes now!

Ukes4Fun blog: Stay One More Night - Marie Little

I got in touch with Martin at Marie's suggestion when I was making a song sheet for "Stay One More Night" - lovely bloke!

The original song is in Eb but Marie does it in C.

This is a PDF of the ukulele song sheet in C:

Well [Eb]stay here in my arms, with [Ab]all your charms 'til [Eb]morning

I'll [Eb]soothe all your worries so [Ab]you'll still love me in the [Eb]morning

So [Eb]all that night I prayed that [Ab]you would say in the [Eb]morning

I a[Eb]woke to look into your eyes at [Ab]sunrise in the [Eb]morning
But you wouldn't stay in my arms and I had to let you [Bb]go
There's [Eb]something you're not saying as you've [Ab]lain here in the [Eb]morning
'Cos you wouldn't stay in my arms and I [Bb]had to let you [Eb]go

{soc}
{c:REPEAT CHORUS:}

{eoc}
[Eb]Why don't you stay forever, what's [Bb]keepin' you a[Eb]waa[Bb]aa[Eb]ay
