What I'm Leaving For

	  		Intro D 

 

D 
Keep those lights on 

Toys on the front lawn 
G 
Disneyworld trip next summer 

Used kit for our little air-drummer 
D 
Food on the table 

Brand new cradle 
G 
For the angel that's coming in a minute 

This house and everybody in it 

        Bm 
Got my bags packed, got my ticket 
       A 
Got a heartache to go with it 
       G 
Baby, kiss me, say you'll miss me 
      Bm                D 
But while we still got time 

       D              
Take a look at our little paradise 
          G 
It ain't much but baby, you and I 
                   A 
Picked the right stars, made the right wish 
       G                       Bm 
Ain't nothing out there like this 
        D 
And it kills me that I gotta go 
          G 
Couldn't do it if I didn't know 
     F#m                              G 
That every time I'm walking out that door 
                           D 
You know what I'm leaving for 

         D 
When I'm out there 

I know I'm where 
     G 
I'm meant to be picking them strings 

And getting that small town to sing 
         D 
On that last turn home 

I can hardly wait 
    G 
To drop my bags, kiss your face 
       A 
'Cause all I can do is stop 

       D              
Take a look at our little paradise 
          G 
It ain't much but baby, you and I 
                   A 
Picked the right stars, made the right wish 
       G                       Bm 
Ain't nothing out there like this 
        D 
And it kills me that I gotta go 
          G 
Couldn't do it if I didn't know 
     F#m                              G 
That every time I'm walking out that door 
                           D 
You know what I'm leaving for 

( D  G ) 

     Bm 
Oh, Got my bags packed, got my ticket 
       A 
Got a heartache to go with it 
       G 
Baby, kiss me, say you'll miss me 
      Bm                D 
But while we still got time 

       D              
Take a look at our little paradise 
          G 
It ain't much but baby, you and I 
                   A 
Picked the right stars, made the right wish 
       G                       Bm 
Ain't nothing out there like this 
        D 
And it kills me that I gotta go 
          G 
Couldn't do it if I didn't know 

F#m                                  G 
You know that this heart of mine is yours 

(You know that this heart is yours) 
     F#m                              G 
That every time I'm walking out that door 
                           D 
You know what I'm leaving for
