She's Leaving Home Chords
The Beatles *

E     Bm     F#m         C#m    F#m
Wednesday morning at five o'clock as the day begins
G          A
Silently closing her bedroom door
G             A
Leaving the note that she hoped would say more

     E  Bm      F#m         C#m
She goes downstairs to the kitchen clutching a handkerchief
G          A7
Quietly turning the backdoor key
G            A7
Stepping outside she is free

D
She - we gave her most of our lives
D
Is leaving - sacrificed most of our lives
D         F#m
Home - We gave her everything money could buy
C#m            F#m         C#m
She is leaving home after living alone for so many years

E   Bm      F#m        C#m
Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown,
G             A7
Picks up the letter that's lying there.
G           A7
Standing alone at the top of the stairs,

      E    Bm      F#m        C#m
She breaks down and cries to her husband "Daddy our baby's gone".
G             A7
Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly?
G            A7
How could she do this to me?

D
She - we never thought of ourselves
D
Is leaving - never a thought for ourselves
D          F#m
Home - we struggled hard all our lives to get by
C#m           F#m         C#m
She's leaving home after living alone for so many years

E   Bm     F#m         C#m
Friday morning at nine o'clock she is far away
G          A7
Waiting to keep the appointment she made
G     A      A7
Meeting a man from the motor trade


D
She - what did we do that was wrong?
D
Is having - we didn't know it was wrong
D                F#m
Fun - fun is the one thing that money can't buy
C#m            F#m         C#m   F#m
Something inside that was always denied for so many years
C#m      F#m    A  E
She's leaving home bye bye
