[Verse 1]
D# Fm7
When I think that there's nothing left to say,
Gm
Then you say it again,
Fm Fm7
Hurts like never before,
D#maj7
Searching to find a open door.
[Verse 2]
D# Fm7
Tell you this we'll never meet again,
Gm
When I'm feeling this way,
Fm7
With these words you will fly,
D#maj7
Like a bird in the unforgiving sky,
[Chorus 1]
G#maj7
Don't leave me behind,
D#maj7
Don't leave me behind,
G#maj7
Don't leave me behind.

We could dive beneath the golden waves,

Yeah we could be safe,

Through the sandhills we ride

Like the leaves on the vine of forgotten time

Don't leave me behind

Don't leave me behind
G#maj7
Don't leave me behind

And as the distant whispers call my name,

In the blackest heartlands of my shame,

Look around there's no-one left to blame

Losing my way

I could hide familiar in my pain,

Serve my sorrows in vein,

I could step right outside,

Show you that I'm alive,
[Chorus 3]

And you'll leave me behind,
Fmaj7
I'll leave you behind,
A#maj7
I'll leave you behind,

I'll leave you behind. [Repeat to fade]
