    D                         A                         D   (RIFF #1)
I used to think love was the soft rope meant to tie me down

     D                                 A                 D  (RIFF #2)
And all that could ever own me was a guitar and another town

 G                                             D
Ten years can disappear real fast - When every morning just leaves somewhere

       G                       D                      A(7)
else behind - But I've been thinking about leaving - Long enough to change

     D  (RIFF # 2)
my mind

  D                            A                        D  (RIFF #1)
Lying here beside you - I can feel it start to pull me away

                  D                          A(7)                   D
The thought I'll have again tomorrow - That just came back from yesterday

     G                                          D               G
But your embrace makes any reason - For those memories hard to find

             D                      A(7)                     D (RIFF #1)
I've been thinking about leaving - Long enough to change my mind

    G                                          D
Sometimes I miss the warm, bright lights - Sometimes I miss the crowds

    G                             D                A
Sometimes I miss the woman - I wrapped each song around

    G                                       D                G
Sometimes I miss that world out there - So empty, hard and unkind

                 D                      A(7)                     D (RIFF #2)
But I've been thinking about leaving - long enough to change my mind

Sometimes I miss the warm, bright lights - Sometimes I miss the noise

    G                                     D             A
Sometimes I miss the fading sounds - Of every cheering voice

But I've been thinking about leaving - Long enough to change my mind
