Left And Leaving

• B5

Intro: B5  G#m7  F#sus4  Esus2 x2

Verse 1:
B5               G#m7                        F#sus4  
  My city's still breathing, but barely it's true
       Esus2                         B5   
Through buildings gone missing like teeth
                 G#m7                    F#sus4 
The sidewalks are watching me think about you
Esus2                 
Sparkled with broken glass
G#m7   F#/A#     B5       E  
   I'm back with scars to show
G#m7    F#/A#    B5        E
   Back with the streets I know
    C#m/F# 
Will never take me anywhere but here.

(Intro 1x)

Verse 2:
B5                 G#m7                     F#sus4
  The stain in the carpet, this drink in my hand
    Esus2                   B5
The strangers whose faces I know
                 G#m7                   F#sus4
We meet here for our dress rehearsal to say
   Esus2     
"I wanted it this way"
G#m7    F#/A#   B5      E
   Wait for the year to drown
G#m7      F#/A#    B5        E
   Spring forward, fall back down
    C#m/F#                         B5/G#  B5/F#  B5/E 
I'm trying not to wonder where you are.

B5/G#  B5/F#  B5/E

Bridge:
B5/G#     B5/F#     B5/E
     All  this   time
B5/G#      B5/F#  B5/E
     Lin - gers   undefined
B5/G#       B5/F#  B5/E
     Should  one  choose
         F# 
   Who's left and who's leaving

(Intro 1x)

Verse 3:
  B5            G#m7                F#sus4 
    Memory will rust and erode into lists
   Esus2                 B5
Of all that you gave me
                G#m7                     F#sus4
A blanket, some matches, this pain in my chest
    Esus2               G#m7
The best parts of lonely
     F#/A#    B5       E
Duct tape and soldered wires
G#m7  F#/A#     B5    E 
New   words for old desires
    C#m/F#
And every birthday card I threw away

Solo:

B5  G#m7  F#sus4  Esus2 (4x)

Verse 4:
G#m7  F#/A#     B5  E
    I  wait  in 4/4 time
G#m7      F#/A#  B5      E
    Count yellow highway lines
     C#m/F#                        B5  G#m7  F#sus4  Esus2      
That you're relying on to lead you home.
That you're relying on to lead you home.
That you're relying on to lead you home.
