So many times I told you [D] I was leaving
And so many times you [G] know I tried
But saying your name in a song [C] seems easier
Than leaving [D] and saying [E] [G] goodbye
So [D]
many times I tried to leave [C] but wouldn't get to [G] see
That [D] one funny [A] man like a runaway child
Running so fast across the [F#m] street
[G] My mind rides down my lips till [D] day is over
But my heart would only say [G] it's a lie
And saying your leaving [C] sounds easier
Than leaving [D] and saying [G]
goodbye

[G] My mind rides down my lips till [D] day is over
But my heart would only say [G] it's a lie
And saying your leaving sounds [C]
