[A] [D]
[A] [D]
There's a [A]paperclip resting on my [D]countertop
Sunday morning I [A]forgot What it's like to [D]lose a friend
[A]Yesterday How it seems [D]so far away
And I've said all [A]I can say [D]
Chorus
Now it's [A]time I get to [D]goin'
Now it's [A]time I get to [D]finding my own way
And I'll leave you [A]lonely [D]
I'll leave you [A]lonely [D]
Verse 2
Now I'm [A]on the road Knowing not which [D]way to go
Is it yes or [A]is it no? I don't really [D]care
For the [A]golden sun Has washed me away and [D]I've become
Just another [C#m]vagabond holding my [Bm]head
Chorus
Now it's [A]time I get to [D]goin'
Now it's [A]time I get to [D]finding my own way
And I'll leave you [A]lonely [D]
I'll leave you [A]lonely [D]
Bridge
[F#m]All in all it's a beautiful [D]day
And I [F#m]wake up all alone I cannot [D]help but run away
Now I'm [F#m]afraid That it's all in my [D]head
Don't you[F#m] know That it's all in your [D]head?
Verse 3
So you [A]roll the dice Melt the fire [D]burn the ice
Find the girl with [A]yellow eyes And go and break her[D] heart
See that nothing [A]changes And I know not what [D]I've become
A prisoner to [C#m]everyone I've loved from [Cm]the [Bm]start [E]
Chorus
Now it's [A]time I get to [D]goin'
Now it's [A]time I get to [D]finding my own way
And I'll leave you [A]lonely [D]
I'll leave you [A]lonely [D]
I'll leave [F#m]you lonely [D]I'll leave you lonely
I'll leave [Bm]you [E]lonely....
A D A (End on A)
I'll leave you lonely
