[Intro]
Am C F
They leave, they leave, they leave, they leave, they leave
Am
No matter what you do or say
C F
It’s there and then it’s gone away

[Verse 1]
Am
Some they love to give it all
C
Head over heels, they’ll always call
F
They’re only left with nine to five days
Am
Some they learn to roll the dice
C
And some they learn by blackened eyes
F
And some they learn out on the highway

[Pre-Chorus]
Am G/B C Em F
Loving what it seems ‘cause hearts don’t only beat, they break
Am G/B C Em F
It could be bursting at the seams but it all ends the same damn way

[Chorus]
Am C F
They leave, they leave, they leave, they leave, they leave
Am
No matter what you do or say
C F
It’s there and then it’s gone away
Am C F
They leave, they leave, they leave, they leave, they leave
Am C
I’m begging on, you begging on, you begging on, you begging on
F
You please
Am
Lock the door and throw away the key

[Interlude]
Am C F

[Verse 2]
A
You grow up quick, you grow up fast
C
you grow attached, then it don’t last
F
You don’t break but you keep bending
Am
No one tells you anything
C
Our love’s pulling on a string
F
You’ll never find the ending

[Pre-Chorus]
Am G/B C Em F
Loving what it seems ‘cause hearts don’t only beat, they break
Am G/B C Em F
It could be bursting at the seams but it all ends the same damn way

[Chorus]
Am C F
They leave, they leave, they leave, they leave, they leave
Am
No matter what you do or say
C F
It’s there and then it’s gone away
Am C F
They leave, they leave, they leave, they leave, they leave
Am C
I’m begging on, you begging on, you begging on, you begging on
F
You please
Am C F
Lock the door and throw away the key…….
Am C F
Lock the door and throw away the key…….

[Outro]
Am
Lock the door and throw away the key
