Hope you enjoy this "easy to play along" Version for this song. Feel free to correct me if something's wrong.
In the 2nd INTERLUDE part you have this D/C# thing. Just play a D major and put your little finger on the
C#(A-String, 4th fret)and strum it once.
[Intro]
G D A D
[Chorus]
G D
No it's never on the day you leave
A D
That you wonder what you still believe in
G D A
And you can't remember why you said goodbye
G D A Bm G
You'll hear an old familiar sound and hope it's her when you turn around
D A D
But never, never on the day you leave
[Verse 1]
G D
Love grows in the time it's been
Bm A
Since you last heard her sing
G D
She'll cut her hair and move somewhere
Bm A
She don't owe you anything
[Interlude]
G D A D
[Chorus]
G D
No it's never on the day you leave
A D
You can tell how it's gonna be
G D A
To watch a girl become a ghost before your eyes
G D
You wish you'd given her one more kiss
A Bm G
To put away for a night like this
D A D
But never, never on the day you leave
[Verse 2]
G D
Love grows in the time it's been
Bm A
Since you last held her hand
G
She'll fight for you like hell
D Bm A
Then force herself to like some other man
[Interlude]
D G E D D D/C#
[Chorus]
G D
No it's never on the day you leave
A D
That you remember Christmas Eve
G D A
And all the things you miss about her crazy family
G D A Bm G
You'll know how lonely it is to see a little drug store Christmas tree
Bm A D
But never, never on the day you leave
Bm A D
No never, never on the day you leave
[Bridge]
E G
So maybe it'd be better off to write her
E G
And leave a little note right there beside her
E G
That says maybe we're not perfect but I'll be
D A G
Damned if I ever leave
D A G
Damned if I ever leave
D D/A D
Damned if I ever leave
