[Verse 1]
G             A                G
- I can't believe she's going
         A            G
I said please show me
               A                      C
What selfish seeds I plant along the way
                 F
Black harvest today
G            A               G
- The empty bed she left me
             A
Cold on one side


[Pre-chorus]

A           G   A      G
- Can't believe - only me
  D         G
Shadows in purple thrill me
   D           Em
I cry myself awake each night
            G
I can't believe that it's true
        A             Em
Here am I, where are you?


[Chorus]
A                    G    D A
- Can I cope with today?
            G           A D G
My love is leavin' me
                              D A
Still I'm hoping she'll stay
            G          A D G
My love is leavin' me


[Verse 2]
              A               G
But I'll control my feelings
         A             G
I find faith, healing
               A
And I'll find hope singing
               C
The way is so long
                    G
But I'm gonna be strong
 F          Em     D       C
Oh, what a turn around
 F             Em       D
Soon, someday I'll be bound


[Chorus]
                      G   D A
And I'll cope with today?
            G           A D G
My love is leavin' me
                              D A
Still I'm hoping she'll stay
            G          A D G
My love is leavin' me

[Pre-chorus]
A           G   A      G
- Can't believe - only me
  D         G
Shadows in purple thrill me
   D           Em
I cry myself awake each night
            G
I can't believe that it's true
        A                 Em
Here am I, oh, where are you?
    A
My love


[Outro]
G                 G
- Breathing your perfume chills me
              A
Dreams never lie
A         G  A         G
- Is it true - asking you?
            G           A D G
My love is leavin' me
                              D A
Still I'm hoping she'll stay
                  G          A D G
Yeah, my love is leavin' me
                            D A
Yeah that's what you heard
         G             A D G
Oh I'm free as a bird
                  D A
Leavin', leavin'    Oh
            G                    A D G
My love is leavin' me...leavin'
                    D A
My love is leavin'
                     G          A D G
Oh, yes, my love is leavin' me
                            D A
Yeah that's what you heard
              G             A D G
Oh, yes I'm free as a bird
