Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
D


Verse 1:
 D                               G
Lover, please do not leave me departed
                          A
Finish the work that you started
                                  D       G  D  A
Don’t leave me some half painted dream
D                                          G
Tell me why she takes all the love that I give her
                           A
Flows down the path like a river
                              D     G  D  A
And throws my love out to the sea

Chorus:
       G                               D
Well, Jesus, what do we say when they leave us
                       A
Why don’t they ever believe us
                            D
Do they know not what they do?
 G                                    D
Blameless, they say cupid’s arrow is aimless
                                 A
But I’ve got some names on this blame list
                                     D     A
And they all point their fingers at you.


Verse 2:
 D                                       G
Windows, there’s all kinds of lovers within those
                                  A
And while they’re together their love grows
                        D      G  D  A
Fogs up the windows at night
 D                                      G
Questions, I’ve got more than I care to ask
                              A
They fall out like marbles on glass
                                  D     G  D  A
And the answers don’t seem to be right


Chorus:
       G                               D
Well, Jesus, what do we say when they leave us
                       A
Why don’t they ever believe us
                            D
Do they know not what they do?
 G                                    D
Blameless, they say cupid’s arrow is aimless
                                 A
But I’ve got some names on this blame list
                                     D    G  D  A
And they all point their fingers at you.


Instrumental:

D    G  D  A


Verse 3:
 D                                       G
Tomorrow, I’d trade all my nights for tomorrow
                           A
I’d trade all tomorrows to borrow
                  D    G  D  A
An hour of yesterday
 D                                            G
And lovers, I guess that there’s all kinds of lovers
                     A
Maybe I’ll go find another
                                D    G  D  A
But she’s probably a lifetime away


Chorus:
       G                               D
Well, Jesus, what do we say when they leave us
                       A
Why don’t they ever believe us
                            D
Do they know not what they do?
 G                                    D
Blameless, they say cupid’s arrow is aimless
                                 A
But I’ve got some names on this blame list
                                     D
And they all point their fingers at you.
