Intro: D Bm X2

Verse 1:
D               A               Bm                   G
 The nights are wearing me down and it's hard to get through the day
Bm                    A                        D           A
'Cos I need you right now and right now you're so far away
D             A                 Bm             G
 I guess that I should have known that I'd end up this way
Bm                    A                          D            A
But I swear I'll come home and then nothing will drag me away

Chorus:
D               Bm            D               Bm
 Don't you ever leave me baby, don't you ever leave me now
D               Bm            D                            Bm
 Don't you ever leave me baby, if you'll leave me you will kill me now 

Break:
G                                   Bm                               A
Now that so much time has passed, I know that this love of ours will last forever
G
Because we feel it, think it, hope it and believe it
Bm                           A
You need me like I need you, I know you do, I'm sure you do

Verse 2:
D               A               Bm             G                 
 The lights are slowly going down on Lexington Avenue
    Bm           A                D                         A
And me, I'm all alone feeling the tears falling down from my eyes
D         A                  Bm          G                                           
 A subway train is passing by, driving into the darkness
Bm       A                  D                A
I jump inside 'cos I've got nowhere to sleep tonight

Chorus:
D               Bm            D               Bm
 Don't you ever leave me baby, don't you ever leave me now
D               Bm            D                            Bm
 Don't you ever leave me baby, if you'll leave me you will kill me now 

Break:
G
I was forcing myself just to walk through the day
Bm                                              A
When all I really wanted to do was curl up in a corner and cry
G
Nothing had any meaning and I just think let's give it another day and see if anything happens
Bm                          A
Then you came along like my own ray of sunshine and made me feel warm and safe and alive again

Guitar solo: D A Bm G Bm A D A X2
 
Chorus:
D               Bm            D               Bm
 Don't you ever leave me baby, don't you ever leave me now
D               Bm            D                            Bm
 Don't you ever leave me baby, if you'll leave me you will kill me now 
D               Bm            D               Bm
 Don't you ever leave me baby, don't you ever leave me now
D               Bm            D                            Bm
 Don't you ever leave me baby, if you'll leave me you will kill me now 
D               Bm            D               Bm        D
 Don't you ever leave me baby, don't you ever leave baby
