Intro:  

E 



E                                       E 
She left early on the day of the sunrise 

A                              E 
With all the papers in her hand 

E                                         E 
We got angry, got sick of the old thoughts 

A                         E 
Tried hard to make a stand 



F#m                     A          E 
What's a couple bruises say, anyway? 

F#m                                 A           E 
'Cause I'm better broke than in the way, any day 



        A                        E 
Save me one more ticket, take me one more photograph 

        B                           C#m 
I don't want to leave you the way I am 

           A                         E 
But you'll never get to fix it, only watch me fill the cracks 

           B                      C#m 
'Cause I'm leaving you, any way I can 

         F#m      B 
Yes, I... 



Whistling 

A E B C#m 

A E B C#m 

F#m B 



E                                               E 
She grew quickly, you could see in her slow ?? 

A                                E 
How her hands tapped out the edge 

E                                                     E 
Nothing looks better when you leave it in the daylight 

A                             E 
And she knew all the path ?? 



F#m                    A               E 
So take a hit and pass away, just stay away 

F#m                           A                    E 
'Cause I'm not moving any faster, no matter what I take 



           A                        E  
So save me one more ticket, take me one more photograph 

        B                           C#m 
I don't want to leave you the way I am 

           A                         E  
But you'll never get to fix it, only watch me fill the cracks 

           B                     C#m 
'Cause I'm leaving you any way I can 

         F#m      B 
Yes, I...
