[Verse]
G             D
Leavin' isn't quite the same
Em              Am                 D Am
You said to me, it's runnin' away.
G                   D                  Em
If you're scared or tired of what you're scared of
               Am    D  C
Why should you stay

[Bridge]
C               D       C
You love to say goodbye
Em                 D   Em     Gbm
And always counted all the    time

[Chorus]
  Bm        C
'til he was free
Em     C       D
to get up and leave
   G            C     Am C D
to learn how to breathe
G      Bm Em G Bm Em G
again...

[Verse]
G                      Bm
Slippin' out to have a cigarette
     Em                Am               D
with someone else that he'd never met
G          Bm         Em
Ask her if by the way would you like to
G                       Am     D   C
run away... and try to forget

[Bridge]
Am           D
Just not to stay
C                D  C    D
To leave without saying  why

[Chorus/Outro]
G             C
To get up and go
   Em        Am   D
To catch the last train
   Bm     D    Am      Em    C
To get in some car and drive out again
   Em         C         Am
To never come back this way
C          D
Left to    say:
G      Bm
goodbye
   Em
so long
G       C
farewell
Em     D
au revoir
G      Bm
goodbye
   Em
so long
G       C
farewell
Em     D
au revoir
Bm Em G C Em
