D                         C             G 
You say you're tired of this love affair
                     Em7        D
It brings you down close to despair
                      C               G 
Our love has fallen apart at the seems
                  Em7         D
I was too taken, lived in a dream
       Bm7        G         A
All I want is to be around you
      Bm7          G          A
So I cry, yes it's all I can do

Chorus:
D                G           C           G 
I know you're leaving but I can't understand
D            Em7       Am7        G
Why what we have must come to an end
D         Em7      C          G
Somebody tell me what can I do?
Bm             A         Dm7   C         D
I know you're leaving but I  still love you

You used to hold me, hold me so strong
I never thought we could ever go wrong
Had no intention to fence you in
Give you affection was my only aim
I will learn not to be around you
So I'll cry, yes it's all I can do

Chorus

F                      G          A#
It's an emptiness you leave behind
                     Dm        C     Dm
Broken memories and pain to remind me
                           G
What's been done can't be turned around
     F          G        A
And hope has become misery

Chorus:
I know you're leaving but I can't understand
Why what we have must come to an end
Somebody tell me what can I do?
I know you're leaving but I ...
I know you're leaving but I can't understand
Why what we have must come to an end
Somebody tell me what can I do?

I know you're leaving but I still love you
I know you're leaving, this time it's goodbye
Baby but I still love you
I know you're leaving, this time it's goodbye
Baby but I still love you
I know you're leaving, this time it's goodbye
Baby but I still love you
