Leave It Alone

D#m, C#, G# (or Capo 1 to get rid of all the sharps)

D#m
All this time I'd never let you go
            C#                                    G#
And now the same chains that I've kept you in are holding down my soul
  D#m
I set you up, I gave you life, I dragged you out the fire
            C#                                        G#
And now you knocked me down you shut me out and I can see it in your eyes
            F#                                
Somehow you got it in your head, that you can make it on your own
         G#                                
You were sheltered, loved, and fed but you just couldn't leave it alone


[Chorus (repeat x2)]
         D#m            
Leave it alone, leave it alone
         C#              G#
Leave it alone, leave it alone


D#m
Well your heart was here, resting on my lap
        C#                      G#
and I'd do it all again but I'm never coming back
       D#m
Well I know I'm lying, lying in the cold
             C#                                                G#
Yeah there's snow on the ground, and if I know myself, I'll be leaving down the road
          F#                            
I've been all around the world but I've got nowhere to go
  G#
I gave into this lonely life and you can't change me now so


[Chorus + Instrumental]

    D#m
The ghosts are on the green each and every night
       C#                   G#
Oh the distant light is the hardest part to take
           D#m
That's the heart of all my pain lying in the cold
       C#                 G#
Oh the distant light in a hue we can't describe, still we know


D#m, C#, G# [x2]


         D#m
Could it all be over now? We've seen it all the while
           C#                               G#
There's no dimension to the clouds, and the moon and world around
           D#m
That's the heart of all my pain, cause I don't wanna go
      C#                 G#
Oh the distant light in a hue we can't describe, still we know
