[Verso 1]

        D              G                   D           G 
Oh, I'm taking all the loneliness, I'm not leaving any sad regrets 
             D                                  A7 
I'll wash my memories from the hallways of your mind 
        D                G                  D        G 
And the way you should remember me is like a page in history 
           D                    A7              D    D7 
'cause I'm leaving your world a better place to live

                 G                              D              G 
Walk through the roses in the garden before the morning sun is shining 
          D                             A7 
Where you gave me every reason I had to live 
           G                           D                  G 
That ain't dew on the petals, it's the tears I lost while leaving 
      D                    A7              D    Am7 
While leaving your world a better place to live

             D                G                    D          G 
If you see a shadow along the highway, that's just me a-going my way 
           D                                A7 
'cause I'm too proud to show my face in the sun 
         D              G          D                    G 
And with evening coming on, like a shadow, I'll soon be gone 
           D                    A7              D    D7 
'cause I'm leaving your world a better place to live
