Zox - Leaving Me

G Am
wake up in the middle of the night
Dm A#
the air is so heavy my head’s screwed on too tight
F C
and in the glow of the christmas lights i watch you sleep
G Am
the hands on the cigarette clock are just
Dm A#
time ticking away this love i’ve got
F C
there’s no way to make it stop before you wake

Dm G
i know you’re leaving me
A# F C
this is not the way that i was brought up to believe that it would be
Dm G
i know you’re leaving me
A# F
i’m running round in circles trying to figure out
C
just who i’m supposed to be

G Am
we go down to prospect park
Dm
to watch the light become the dark
A# F C
and i don’t think i’ve ever been this scared
G Am
outside as the yellow moon rises
Dm
i know this time it won’t surprise us
A# F C
but that don’t mean that i will be prepared

repeat chorus

G Am Dm
i’m so tired of writing sad songs
A# F C
but my mind’s on misery
G Am Dm
and i know there’s time until you’re gone
A#
but i can’t let it be
F C
i can’t let it be

repeat chorus
