Verse 1:
C          G
Don't go saying I'm leaving you
F                     C
Thinking I never got close enough to stay
         G
Time runs in and then runs out
F                     C
Starts again and it's always been that way
G

You're going to drown tomorrow
    C      F          C
If you cry too many tears for yesterday
          G
Tomorrow's half of all you've got, so
F                        C
Treat him good, cause when I'm gone, he'll stay


Verse 2:
      G
I won't be forgetting you
F                 C
You won't be forgetting me, I know
         G
If memory comes a summer cloud
F                  C
Rains her sweetness down to me below
 G
I see you like you look right now
C       F        C
Made me wonder why I had to go
         G
But Heaven is the way she is
F
Rain falls and rivers flow

C G F

Verse 3:
C      G
So here's to feeling good
F             C
And here's to feeling bad
        G
Here's to being thankful
F                  C
Sorry for the pleasures that we had
  G
And autumn days, and window panes
C        F          C
God, forgive us if you feel deceived
             G
The clock don't know you like I do
F
And it's only him or me you got to believe

C G F
