Leaving Me

G Am

wake up in the middle of the night

Dm Bb

the air is so heavy my head's screwed on too tight

F C

and in the glow of the christmas lights i watch you sleep

G Am

the hands on the cigarette clock are just

Dm Bb

time ticking away this love i've got

F C

there's no way to make it stop before you wake

Dm G

i know you're leaving me

Bb F C

this is not the way that i was brought up to believe that it would be

Dm G

i know you're leaving me

Bb F

i'm running round in circles trying to figure out

C

just who i'm supposed to be

G Am

we go down to prospect park

Dm

to watch the light become the dark

Bb F C

and i don't think i've ever been this scared

G Am

outside as the yellow moon rises

Dm

i know this time it won't surprise us

Bb F C

but that don't mean that i will be prepared

Repeat Chorus

G Am Dm

i'm so tired of writing sad songs

Bb F C

but my mind's on misery

G Am Dm

and i know there's time until you're gone

Bb

but i can't let it be

F C

i can't let it be

Repeat Chorus
