Let Me Leave keyboard

Let Me Leave

• E

Verse 1:
E
How many times have I come to you
          Fdim  
How many times have you taken me in
F#m   
How have you never quite realized
                   A
That this will be nothing more than what it's been
E                                             Fdim
Why is it that I return to the scene of the crime

Though there's nothing I need
             F#m  
Between the moments that linger before us
             B                     Cdim 
Haven't you wondered why I always leave


Chorus:
C#m  
Let me
          E   B/D#  
Be who I am
C#m  
Let me
               E   B/D#  
Leave while I can
         C#m  
You know love don't find
              B    A
This sort of man
         Am  
So just let me leave
             E   Bm   {E- Bm progression 4x}
While I can


Verse 2:
E
How many times have I come to you
               Fdim  
Bleeding and broken and under attack
F#m  
How can you look in my eyes and my heart
         B                                 Cdim
And not see that there's something I lack
E  
Why is it that I'm as bad as I am
       Fdim                    /C#
But I know that you'll never believe
F#m  
Why do you still love me
                 B                         Cdim
When all I have done is to lie and deceive

Chorus 2:
C#m  
Let me
          E   B/D#  
Be who I am
C#m  
Let me
               E   B/D#  
Leave while I can
          C#m  
You know love don't find
              B    A
This sort of man


Bridge:
F#m  
Can't give you what you need
        E/G#  
And I'm so tired that I can't breathe
       A
And I don't know if you can see,
         B                 /D#  
But my ship is goin' down
        F#m   
And I tried my best to be a man
     E/G#  
So I set you free while I still can
         A                          B    Cdim
Cause I can't seem to change who I am


Chorus 3:
        C#m  
So just let me
          E    B/D#  
Be who I am
        C#m  
Oh, oh, let me
               E    B/D#  
Leave while I can 
          C#m  /E   /E    /D#    /C#   {carry walk-down into next line}
You know love don't find
/D#       /C# B    A
This sort of man
         Am  
So just let me
               E    Bm     {vamp on the E- Bm progression till end} 
Leave while I can
