She's Leaving Home Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Wed[G]nes[D]day morning at fi[C]ve[G]
o 'clock as the [Bm]day [E]begins
Si[G]lently closing [Asus4]her bedro[A]om door
Leav[G]ing the note that
she [A]hoped would say
She goes [D]downstairs [Am]to the k[Em]itchen
[G]clutching her [Bm]handkerchief[E]
[Bm]Quietly [G]turning the bac[A]kdoor key
Step[G]ping outside she is [A]free
[D]We gave her most of our lives
Sacrificed most of our lives
We gave her [C]everything
[D]money cou[C]ld buy[Bm]
She's leaving home
after liv[E]ing alone
for so [Bm]many [E]years
[D]Father [C]snores [Am]as his w[G]ife
gets into her [Bm]dressing [E]gown
Pick[G]s up the letter
that's [A]ly ing there
Stand[G]ing alone at the [A]top of the stairs
She breaks [D]down and [C]cries to
her [Em]hus [G]band, Daddy
Our [Bm]baby's [E]gone
[Asus4]Why would she t[G]reat us
[Asus4]so though[A]tlessly?
[G]How could she do this to [A]me?
[D]She...
We never thought of ourselves
Is leaving...
Never a thought for ourselves
We struggle [C]hard [D]all our lives to [C]get
[Bm]she's leaving home
after liv[E]ing alone
for [Bm]so many years
[E]Friday[D] morning[Am] at nine[Em] o 'cloc[G]k
she is [Bm]far away
Fun!
[E]Waiting[G] to [Asus4]keep the[G][Asus4]
[A]ap pointment she made
Meet[G]ing a man from the [A]motor trade
[D]She... What did we do that was wrong?
Is happy
We didn't know it was wrong
Fun! Fun is the [C]one [D]thing that
my [C]EECA [Bm]saw
Something inside that was
[E]always in my heart
For so [Bm]many [E]years
[Bm]She's leaving [E]home
Bye [G]bye [D]you
