     THINKING ABOUT LEAVING   Dwight Yoakum



D                     A                 A7       D   lick

I think love was the soft rope meant to tie me down

D                                  A          A7     D   lick

All that could ever own me was a guitar and another town

G

Ten years can disappear real fast

              D                                     G

From every morning just leaving somewhere else be-hind

                D                      A              A7       D   lick

But I've been thinking about leaving long enough to change my mind

D                            A                A7        D   lick

Lying here beside you I can feel it start to pull me a-way

D                                   A             A7     D    lick

Lord, I'll have it again tomorrow just came from yester-day

G                                              D               G

But your embrace makes any reason for those memories hard to find

                 D                    A               A7       D

And I've been thinking about leaving long enough to change my mind



       G                                        D

Some-times I miss the warm bright lights Some-times I miss the crowds

       G                         D                  A

Some-times I miss the women I wrapped each song a-round

       G                                    D                 G

Some-times I miss that world out there So empty heart and un-kind

                 D                     A              A7       D    Lick

But I've been thinking about leaving long enough to change my mind



Lead,

       G                                       D

Some-times I miss the warm bright lights Some-times I miss the noise

       G                                D              A  

Some-times I miss the fading sound of every cheering voice

       G                                   D                  G

Some-times I miss that would out there so empty heart and un-kind

                 D                     A               A7       D   lick

But I've been thinking about leaving long enough to change my mind

                D                      A              A7        D   lick

And I've been thinking about leaving long enough to change my mind
