Cmaj7
You sold you records by the pile
                                Fmaj7
For they were only yours for a while
Cmaj7
You placed your furniture in the yard
                           Fmaj7
And it was gone within the hour

Chorus:
         Dm      C G
When you moved away
Dm
All your friends came over
         C                 G
and you told them what to take
         Dm      C G
When you moved away
Dm                            Cmaj7  Fmaj7
Everyone thought it was a mistake

You mopped the floors and filled the cracks
To get your security deposit back
You closed your account at the bank
You checked your tires and filled the tank

Chorus:
When you moved away
All of your friends got drunk and
one by one begged you to stay
When you moved away
They all felt irrationally betrayed

Since you moved away
I walk past your vacant apartment
almost every day
When you moved away
You left this town with such an empty space
