When You Leave That Way

	  		 
 
about the same thing for the A chord. 
 
Verse 1: 
        D 
	I remember waking in the morning 
                                        A 
	To the sound of the rooster's crow 
     
	Mamma cooking in the kitchen 
                                 D 
	Arthur Godfrey on the radio 
 
 
Verse 2: 
        D  
	Me and Dad were just like strangers 
                                A 
	We never did see eye to eye 
                 
	Came to blows one Sunday morning 
                                            D  F  C/G  D 
	So i packed my bags and i said goodbye 
 
 
Chorus: 
         /                                        Em   
	When you leave that way you can never go back 
      A                                  D   
	A train won't run on a torn up track 
                                     G  D     Em 
	Sometimes i wish i'd never roamed,oh no 
      A                                                  D    
	'cause when you leave that way you can never go home 
 
 
Verse 3: 
         D  
	Then i met a girl in Knoxville 
                               A 
	Oh,we set our wedding day 
 
	I left her standing at the alter 
                            D  
	With a baby on the way 
 
 
Chorus. 
 
 
Bridge: 
         G                A              D   
	Lord i'd love to see my mom and daddy 
              G               A                Bm   
	And what i'd give to hold that boy of mine 
             G               A                  D 
	I'd get down on my knees and i say i'm sorry 
          E                               A                       
	If i could only go back one more time 
 
 
Verse 4: 
         D 
	But i killed a man in Houston 
                                    A 
	When he caught me with his wife 
                
	And i told the preacher man to leave me alone 
                                 D 
	When he came to read my rights

	He said son,when you leave this way you can never come back 
      A                                  D	 
	A soul won't roll on a torn up track 
                                     G   D Em 
	All through eternity you'll roam alone 
      A                                                    D  
	'cause when you leave this way you can never come home 
 
                                     G   D Em    
	All through eternity you'll roam alone 
      A                                                    Bm   
	'cause when you leave this way you can never come home
