Nothin Left But Leavin

G   C   G   D   G
[Verse 1]
G               C                
Tonight it's so cold the rain is 
D7
fallin'
         G            C            
But it's still not as cold as your 
D7
love for me
               G
That's why I'm walkin' down this 
highway
      C
And a diesel goin' my way
          G           D           
Will take me far from you and 
      G
you'll be free

[Chorus]
          C                        
There was nothin' left but leavin' 
          G
for us in Tulsa
         D                         
But then again the same was true 
     G
out in A
           C
Seems like troubles always find us
Continues after the ad
Remove ads
     G                  C
So I broke the tie that binds us
          G       C        G      
There was nothin' left but leavin'
 D  G
 anyway

[Verse 2]
G                    C            
We tried to find our dreams in New
 D7
 Mexico
        G                    C    
But the answers just weren't there
          D7
 in Santa Fe
             G
And we could blame it all on Texas
        C
But the problem now with us is
         G           D          G
We never had what we thought anyway

[Chorus]
          C                        
There was nothin' left but leavin' 
    G
any longer
      D                            
And I finally found the strength to
      G
 walk away
         C
Tell the kids their daddy loves them
             G                  C
They'll understand I'm thinkin' of 
them
          G       C        G      
There was nothin' left but leavin'
 D  G
 anyway

C         G       C        G    
There was nothin' left but 
   D  G
leavin' anyway
