The Paper Kites – Leopold Street (Guitar)

           E             F#m                 D
You were young, but your eyes were younger still

           E        A
When you found me there.

         E             F#m             D
And you rode down the street to watch me work

           E          A
Building tables and chairs.

           E             F#m        D
You wore white, we were married in July

       E          A
In a church on a hill.

        E              F#m                  D
And I cried 'cos you looked just like the winter

  E             A
Dressed in the light.

  D         A
Where do I go?

  D         A   E
What do I know now?

          A         D              E         A
With my sweet love gone, with my sweet love gone

        E          F#m                  D
With my hands oh I worked the night and day

      E           A
And I built you a home

       E              F#m               D
And we raised our own children in those walls

            E         A
Now they're happy and gone

        E           F#m            D
And our yard it was colourful with flowers

     E           A
That scented the air

      E               F#m          D
And I watched as they slowly died away

         E         A
When you needed me there

 D        A
Who do I be?

 D        A   E
What do I see now?

          A         D              E         A
With my sweet love gone, with my sweet love gone

         E          F#m            D
You grew old so much faster than I could

      E              A
And I knew you would go

        E         F#m         D
Laid to rest on a Sunday afternoon

        E         A
And you left me alone

 D        A
How do I live?

 D         A   E
What do I give now?

          A         D              E         A
With me sweet love gone, with my sweet love gone
