[Dm] [Gm]
[Bb] Laying [F] in the [Eb] afterglow, I only [F] want to [Eb] learn what you know.
But now you're leaving, [Gm] how [Fm] many hearts must you [Eb] break?
Well how [F] many calls must [Eb] I make?
Now you're [Bb] leaving, in this world all I choose
has [Eb] come unbearable, but love is in [Dm] your touch.
[Cm] Oh, it's killing me [G] so much.
[D] Oh, only [Bb] when you leave, I need [F] to love you.
And [Eb] when the action has a go, [F] I'm just a [Eb] little fool enough to need you.
[Gm] But for not too [G] [Em] long, [D] only [Bb] when you leave, [F] leave in danger,
[Eb] I'll make sure that [F] you pay.
So give a [Eb] little passion to a stranger, [Gm]
and take this all [D] away.

leaving, how [F] many times must [Eb] I learn?
It's only when you're [Dm] gone, that [Cm] [Eb]
[Bb] I'm saying, all that is left has [Eb] come unbearable.
It's hard to change [Dm] your mind, [Cm] so leave it all [Gm] behind.
[D] Only [Gm] when you leave, I need [F] to love you.
And [Eb] when the action has a [Dm] go, [F] I'm just a [Cm] little fool enough to need you.
[Gm] But for not [D] too [G] long, [D] only [Bb] when you leave, [F] leave in danger,

But [C] now you're [Bb] leaving, in this world, all that I choose has [Eb] come unbearable.
The love that's in [Dm] your touch, [Cm] ooh, it's killing me [Gm] so bad.
