Chords with lyrics

Verse:

C majorC
It's a shame for you to do me the way you did babe
FF                  C majorC
Making me put you down before I was through
G+G                FF
You tempted me and tried me and I kept you right beside me
C majorC               G+G
You ruined me for everyone but you

C majorC
It's easy to love a thing so warm and soothing
FF                  C majorC
That gets you through the night so tenderly
G+G                FF
but after all these nights with you all I remember
C majorC               G+G
Is forgetting just how cold your heart could be

Chorus:

FF            C majorC      G+G                C majorC
Leaving you wont be any harder than walking out the door and leaving town
FF                   A minorAm
but I'll be leaving knowing surviving you don't make me stronger
C majorC
Than the weakest man who ever turned you down


Verse:

C majorC
The body in that pretty dress you wore dear
FF                  C majorC
Fit my shaking hand just like a glove
G+G                FF
but trembling's for the fearful old and crying
C majorC               G+G
Getting old and sad and scared ain't worth your love

C majorC
so will you let me go just like I came babe?
FF                  C majorC
Willful clear of mind and free to see
G+G                FF
Clear enough to see the others like you
C majorC               G+G
and mindful my will breaks so easily


Chorus:

FF            C majorC      G+G                C majorC
Leaving you wont be any harder than walking out the door and leaving town
FF                   A minorAm
but I'll be leaving knowing surviving you don't make me stronger
C majorC
