xVerse 1:
E
How many times have I come to you
Fdim
How many times have you taken me in
F#m
How have you never quite realized
A
That this will be nothing more than what it's been
E Fdim
Why is it that I return to the scene of the crime
Though there's nothing I need
F#m
Between the moments that linger before us
B Cdim
Haven't you wondered why I always leave
Chorus:
C#m
Let me
E B/D#
Be who I am
C#m
Let me
E B/D#
Leave while I can

You know love don't find
B A
This sort of man
Am
So just let me leave
E Bm {E- Bm progression 4x}
While I can
Verse 2:
E
How many times have I come to you
Fdim
Bleeding and broken and under attack
F#m
How can you look in my eyes and my heart
B Cdim
And not see that there's something I lack
E
Why is it that I'm as bad as I am
Fdim /C#
But I know that you'll never believe
F#m
Why do you still love me
B Cdim
When all I have done is to lie and deceive
Chorus 2:
C#m
Let me
E B/D#
Be who I am
C#m
Let me
E B/D#
Leave while I can
C#m
You know love don't find
B A
This sort of man
Bridge:
F#m
Can't give you what you need
E/G#
And I'm so tired that I can't breathe
A
And I don't know if you can see,
B /D#
But my ship is goin' down
F#m
And I tried my best to be a man
E/G#
So I set you free while I still can
A B Cdim
Cause I can't seem to change who I am
Chorus 3:
C#m
So just let me
E B/D#
Be who I am
C#m
Oh, oh, let me
E B/D#
Leave while I can
C#m /E /E /D# /C# {carry walk-down into next line}
You know love don't find
/D# /C# B A
This sort of man

So just let me

Leave while I can
