To Leave Something Behind

G                     C           G
I cannot say that I know you well
        C           G          
But you can't lie to me with all 
         Em
these books that you sell
        C                  Em     
I'm not trying to follow you to 
                  C
the end of the world
            G             C       
I'm just trying to leave something
      G
 behind

G                     C           G
Words have come from men and mouse
        C           G             
But I can't help thinking that 
      Em
I've heard the wrong crowd
        C                Em     G
When all the water is gone my job
                   C
 will be too
            G             C       
And I'm trying to leave something 
      G
behind

     C          Em              G
Oh money is free but love costs 
               C
more than our bread
                     G          D
And the ceiling is hard to reach
        C       Em      G         
Oh the future ahead is broken and 
 C
red
            G             C       
But I'm trying to leave something 
      G
behind

            G           C       G
This whole world is a foreign land
        C           G          
We swallow the moon but we don't 
         Em
know our own hand

        C                Em     G
We're running with the case but 
                   C
we ain't got the gold
            G             C       
Yet we're trying to leave 
      G
something behind

            G           C       G
My friends I believe we are at the 
wrong fight
        C           G           
And I cannot read what I did not 
Em
write
        C                Em   
I've been to his house, but the 
  G               C
master is gone
            G             C   
But I'd like to leave something 
          G
behind

            G           C       G
There is a beast who has taken my 
blame
        C           G           
You can put me to bed but you can't 
Em
feel my pain
        C                Em     G
When the machine has taken the 
               C
soul from the man
            G             C       
It's time to leave something 
      G
behind

     C          Em              G
Oh money is free but love costs 
               C
more than our bread
                     G          D
And the ceiling is hard to reach
        C       Em      G          C
Oh the future ahead is already dead
            G             C       
But I'm trying to leave something 
      G
behind

            G           C          
I got this feeling that I'm still at
G
 the shore
        C           G           
And pockets don't know what it means
Em
 to be poor
        C                Em     G
I can get through the wall if you
               C
 give me a door
G                 C             G
So I can leave something behind

     G                     C 
Oh wisdom is lost in the trees 
           G
somewhere
        C           G           
You're not going to find it in some 
Em
mental gray hair
        C               Em      G
It's locked up from those who 
       C
hurry ahead
        G         C             G
And it's time to leave something 
behind

     C          Em              G
Oh money is free but love costs 
               C
more than our bread
                     G          D
And the ceiling is hard to reach
        C       Em              G
When my son is a man he will know
               C
 what I meant
        G         C             G
I was just trying to leave something
 behind
        G         C             G
I was just trying to leave something
 behind
