Chords for Bobby Tinsley- When Love Won't Let You Leave

[Dm] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [G] Mmm, yeah
It's [D] three o'clock in the [G] morning
[D] And he's still awake
[C] Flipping through old photographs
[G] Trying not to break
It's been almost a year now
Since the [D] last time he saw her face
[C] And most nights he gets through five
But [G] now it's not the case
[C] And he tries [G] how hard he [Am] tries
[C]
To [G] erase her from [Am] his [G] [A] mind
But he [D] wouldn't give [G] anything
[D] He'd give anything
When [G] love won't let you leave
It's like leaving with the [D] lights left on
You lay awake the [Em] whole night praying
For the strength you need [C] to move on
When [G] love won't let you leave
It's a fear in that you [D] can't describe
Knowing that you [Em] lost the one thing
That [D] ever made sense [G] in your life
[D] When [G] love won't let you leave
_ Funny _ _
[D] thing about [G] life [D] is
It takes you by surprise
[B] [C] One day you're on the [Cm] bottom
The [G] next soaring in the sky
So when she [D] told him she was coming home
It blew his mind
[C] This time he swore he wouldn't lose her
[G] He would get it right
[C] And so he [G] tried how hard he [Am] tried
_ [C] _
[G] To keep her satisfied
[A] _ [D] He would do anything
[G] _ [D] He'd give anything
When [G] love won't let you leave
It's like moving back to where [D] you grew up
Even though you've been [Em] away so long
Everything's familiar [C] [G] enough
When love won't let you leave
You reinvent the [D] wheel somehow
You change what you [Em] know needs changing
And [D] get it right the second [G] time around
[D] When love won't [G] let you leave
Oh, oh, oh, oh
He [C] screams, [G] Jesus, can you hear me?
These years went [Am] by too fast
Can you [G] wait before you take her?
[G] She's my [A] only love
Just all that [D] I _ have
Yeah
It's [G] three o [Gm]'clock in the morning
[D] And he's still awake
[Em] And you're in [D] there stroking her [C] hair
And trying not to break
[G] The doctor says it won't be long now
[D] It's been a difficult life
[Em] He brings the [D] kids in from the waiting room
[G] To kiss mama one more time
[C] And he [G] tries how hard he [Am] tries
_ [C]
To [G] accept the fact she's dying
But when love won't let you leave
The doctor's never [D] right, he's wrong
You stay the [Em] whole night by her
Just waiting on a [C] miracle to come
[D] When love won't [G] let you [D] leave
You watch her as she closes her eyes
Begging God, [Em] please don't take [D] her
Please let me have [D] one more night
[G] With [D] her, my wife
[G] When love won't let you [B] leave _
[D] When love won't let [Em] you leave _
[C] Yeah, yeah
[Bm] When [G] love won't let you [D] leave
_ [G] _ [D] _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ [D] _
