A C#7
--There's nothing left inside me, honey
F#m E D
You can call your own

No place that feels like home

You better leave, it all

No bargains, no good deals

D7
Because we don't want to press our luck
A7
And maybe make that well run dry
D7
Ya know we both been betting on rain
A7
But there ain't a cloud in the sky
D7
And how can I convince you
A7
That you'll be richer by yourself
D7
Your good faith only makes me poor
A
Please spend it someplace else
[Verse 3]
A C#7
I got no good dreams to paint your sleep
F#m E D
No place to rest your head

F#m E D
And cry in your own bed
B B7
You better leave it alone
Dm E
You better leave it all
A A
Alone
[Verse 4]
A C#7
--How many tough miles --have we traveled
F#m E D
Like bandits side by side
A C#7
--But now our boots are wearing thin
F#m E D
We're feeling so dissatisfied
B B7
We better leave it alone
Dm E
We better leave, it all
A
Alone
[Chorus 2]
D7
Because we don't want to press our luck
A7
And maybe make that well run dry
D7
Ya know we both been betting on rain
A7
But there ain't a cloud in the sky
D7
And how can I convince you
A7
You'll be richer by yourself
D7
Your good faith only makes me poor
A
Please spend it someplace else
[Verse 5]
A C#7
--The carnival is leaving town
F#m E D
We never got to go

F#m E D
You've been my whole goddamned sideshow
B B7
Better leave it alone
Dm E
You better leave it all
A A
Alone
[Verse 6]
A C#7
--The next time I think of you
F#m E D
I'll be staying in a blue motel
A C#7
--I'll wonder about how you're cutting your hair
F#m E D
Prob'ly even wish you well

Let's leave it alone

Let's leave, it
E
All

Alone

Ya better leave it all alone
