Intro:  Dsus4, Cadd5, Dsus4, Cadd5 
 
        Dsus4 	  	  	            Cadd5 
You never liked this place where we've been livin' all along 
     Dsus4                                 Cadd5 
So you packed up your things and bought a one-way ticket home. 
Am            Em               F            C 
Leavin' never hurts as much as bein' left behind 
 
Chorus: 
G       C 
I would change my life 
G       C 
I would make it right 
G                  C                D                G 
I would change my life if you would only change your mind 
 
I have spent my hours on some misbegotten dreams 
And I have spent my money on some foolish hearted things 
And I have spent my memories on old and bitter wine. 
 
Chorus 
 
Bridge: 
F         C               G 
Birds are flyin' south to spend the wintertime 
C         D                 G 
Skies are turnin' blue to grey 
F            C                   G 
The fire we started here will soon be burnin' down 
C           D             G 
And it gets colder every day 
 
I wish that I could find the words to make you come back home 
I wish that I could say the things you've needed for so long 
I wish that you could see me now maybe then you'd find 
 
Chorus: X2 
Outro:  Dsus4, Cadd5, Dsus4, Cadd5, G.
