Leaving

Em  Cadd9  G

[Verse]
            Em
It takes a hell of a heart
                Cadd9
To know what a heart really needs
         G
and I'm finding out love

Ain't what love's cut out to be
   Em
If I was not my mama's boy
           Cadd9
Leave you crying in this car
         G
punch a hole in your damn dashboard

and forget the girl you are

Em Cadd9 G

[Verse]
                 Em
And we've been fighting for so long,
           Cadd9
It'd be s shame to let this go
         G
But i'd rather let it lie than

Hurt a sweet girl I know

          Em
And it's gettin dark now
        C
So won't you just staay
Continues after the ad
Remove ads
          G
And I'll tell you that I love you

Till the leaving goes away

Em Cadd9 G

[Chorus]
           Em
Till the leaving leaves this house
     Cadd9
Nah we ain't going out
        G
Till I make some promises I can't 
keep
      Em
And I wish I could explain
         Cadd9
How the toxins in my brain
       G
Get me so damn down sometimes I 
can't speak

 Em                          Cadd9
Try to understand why I can't be a 
better man
          G
But it's hard when I'm yellin at you
 in the street
        Em
But if leaving comes to stay
        Cadd9
and you walk yourself away
        G
Leave knowing that no one could love
 you more than me

[Verse]
      Em                           
And I hope the world don't mind all
     Cadd9
 the simple things I ask
        G
Like a porch with good lighting and 
to hear my lady laugh
     Em                          
And I'll act indifferent because 
Cadd9
I don't wanna leave
        G
Cause leaving's for a younger man 
that I don't wanna be

Em Cadd9 G

[Chorus]
           Em
Till the leaving leaves this house
     Cadd9
Nah we ain't going out
        G
Till I make some promises I can't 
keep
      Em
And I wish I could explain
         Cadd9
How the toxins in my brain
       G
Get me so damn down sometimes I 
can't speak

 Em*                          
Try to understand why I can't be a 
Cadd9*
better man
          G*
But it's hard when I'm yellin at you
 in the street
        Em*
But if leaving comes to stay
        Cadd9*
and you walk yourself away
        G*
Leave knowing that no one could love
 you more than me
