Chords

[Intro] C F C Bb C Bb [Verse 1]
         F                           C
Ain't it funny how, one minute, your whole life's looking fine

      Bb                    C
And a short few words later it all just comes untied?

    F                            C
You can't believe you're looking what was always someone else

         Bb                          C
Now it's staring right there at you, yesterday you couldn't tell

   F                          C
So shocked and disillusioned, helpless and confused

    Bb                      C
Not knowing how and what to say, not accepting that it's true

          F                                C
You can't help but see the worst to come a thousand different ways

    Bb                         C
The same time trying to hold a strong and optimistic gaze
[Chorus]
Bb             C        Bb             C
When I saw you leaving, when I saw you leaving

Bb             C             F
When I saw you leaving in my mind
[Verse 2]
        F                                C
And the anger starts to surface, looking up, asking why

        Bb                       C
And you realize He probably wants the best, as same as I

F                        C
Days just go by quickly, nights just never end

   Bb                                C
As time gets so more precious, every sunrise, an old friend

F                                  C
Trying to be a post, to lean on, a part you learn that's hard to play

       Bb                               C
Asking God to let you take her place or just take it all away

F                                       C
Hope you'll wake up in the morning, was all just been a dream

    Bb                            C
You never take for granted every second that you breathe
[Chorus]
Bb             C        Bb             C
When I saw you leaving, when I saw you leaving

Bb             C             F
When I saw you leaving in my mind
[Solo] F C Bb C G D Am C D D [Verse 3]
        G
And the seconds turn to minutes

    D
And minutes wouldn't last

        C                         D
And the hours, days and weeks and months

      D
Seem endless and too fast

        G
And the blessings poured from Heaven

         D
Like the rain on that first spring

           C
Since that moment I first thought you

    D
You might not always be with me
[Chorus]
C              D        C              D
When I saw you leaving, when I saw you leaving

C              D             G    D      G    D
When I saw you leaving in my mind, in my mind
[Outro]
         G              D
Ain't it funny how, one minute, your whole life's looking fine

      G                        D                   G
And a short few words later it all just comes untied?
