[Verse 1]
F Gm7
When I think that there's nothing left to say,
Am
Then you say it again,
Gm Gm7
Hurts like never before,
Fmaj7
Searching to find a open door.
[Verse 2]
F Gm7
Tell you this we'll never meet again,
Am
When I'm feeling this way,
Gm7
With these words you will fly,
Fmaj7
Like a bird in the unforgiving sky,
[Chorus 1]
A#maj7
Don't leave me behind,
Fmaj7
Don't leave me behind,
A#maj7
Don't leave me behind.

F Gm7
We could dive beneath the golden waves,
Am
Yeah we could be safe,
Gm7
Through the sandhills we ride
Fmaj7
Like the leaves on the vine of forgotten time
[Chorus 2]
A#maj7
Don't leave me behind
Fmaj7
Don't leave me behind
A#maj7
Don't leave me behind
Am

Gmaj7 A#maj7
And as the distant whispers call my name,
Fmaj7
In the blackest heartlands of my shame,
A#maj7 C
I hear you laugh, I know it's all a game,
Fmaj7 A#maj7
Look around there's no-one left to blame
C Dmaj7
Losing my way

[Verse 4]
G Am7
I could hide familiar in my pain,
Bm
Serve my sorrows in vein,
Am7
I could step right outside,
Gmaj7
Show you that I'm alive,
[Chorus 3]
Cmaj7
And you'll leave me behind,
Gmaj7
I'll leave you behind,
Cmaj7
I'll leave you behind,
Gmaj7
I'll leave you behind,
Cmaj7
I'll leave you behind. [Repeat to fade]
