D A D (RIFF #1)
I used to think love was the soft rope meant to tie me down
D A D (RIFF #2)
And all that could ever own me was a guitar and another town
G D
Ten years can disappear real fast - When every morning just leaves somewhere
G D A(7)
else behind - But I've been thinking about leaving - Long enough to change
D (RIFF # 2)
my mind

D A D (RIFF #1)
Lying here beside you - I can feel it start to pull me away
D A(7) D
The thought I'll have again tomorrow - That just came back from yesterday
G D G
But your embrace makes any reason - For those memories hard to find
D A(7) D (RIFF #1)
I've been thinking about leaving - Long enough to change my mind

G D
Sometimes I miss the warm, bright lights - Sometimes I miss the crowds
G D A
Sometimes I miss the woman - I wrapped each song around
G D G
Sometimes I miss that world out there - So empty, hard and unkind
D A(7) D (RIFF #2)
But I've been thinking about leaving - long enough to change my mind
