I Love You But Im Leaving

F                            C
Close your eyes and count to ten.

F                        C
Take a minute, breathe it in.

F                         C   C/B Am    G     D9
Watch it mixing with the wind outside your window

      F             G
like salt into the ocean

F               C
Back to where I belong

F                       C
Pedal down, a brand new song

F                       C    C/B   Am     G   D9
Take one off to try one on 'cause there's no secret

F   G    C
to this life.


[Chorus]

   F        C        G
I love you but I'm leavin'.

   F        C     G      Am
I hope you figure out one day

F       C         G   Am
what it is you're needin'

       F          C                    G            C
but if you can't help yourself, I can't make myself stay.


[Verse 2]

F                      C
Every little chord and tone

F                     C
Ring 'em out stick by stone.

F                       C     C/B  Am  G   D9
I know it used to be my home. It's far behind me

      F         G
and I wont look back, no.

F                  C
Not even a second glance.

F                C
Water over dirty hands

   F                             C     C/B  Am    G    D9
and though it doesn't make much sense right now, I'll let it

F         G          C
Just work out in the end.


[Chorus]

   F        C        G
I love you but I'm leavin'.

   F        C     G      Am
I hope you figure out one day

F       C         G   Am
what it is you're needin'

       F          C                    G            C
but if you can't help yourself, I can't make myself stay.


[Bridge]

   F
And though I don't owe an explanation,

                                           C
you're kind of like sittin' too close to a fire.

   F
I know a few feet would make it better

                                                   C
but this chair's so heavy, it's late, I'm gettin' tired.

    G7
But long gone are the days where I stand by and wait

    C                C/B            F
for you to just burn out or burn me up.

           C    G
So this is goodbye.


[Chorus]

   F        C        G
I love you but I'm leavin'.

   F        C     G      Am
I hope you figure out one day

F       C         G   Am
what it is you're needin'

       F          C                    G            C
but if you can't help yourself, I can't make myself stay.
