    D                                A               A9/G9 G*    A9/G9  G*

Justification: At the gold part, strum A9/G9 once, get the hammer on 4 with your
pinky while leaving your third finger on 2. This enables you to quickly change
between chords to achieve the perfect tone.

Don't have direction, I'm just rolling down this road
Waiting for you to bring me in from out the cold

Pre Chorus: 

       Em                                   F#m
You'll never know the endless nights, the rhyming of the rain,
    Em                              A
Or how it feels to fall behind and watch you call his name

Chorus:

D                              Em  
Pack up and leave everything, don't you see what I can bring

G                 G/F#   Em       D
Can't keep this beating heart at bay

Leave your lover, leave him for me
Bm          E7     G             D      (<-- This part is wrong, but I don't know

Rinse and repeat. Enjoy!

I don't have much to give, but I don't care for gold
What use is money, when you need someone to hold?
Don't have direction, I'm just rolling down this road
Waiting for you to bring me in from out the cold

You'll never know the endless nights, the rhyming of the rain,
Or how it feels to fall behind and watch you call his name

Pack up and leave everything,
Don't you see what I can bring
Can't keep this beating heart at bay
Set my midnight sorrow free,
I will give you all of me
Just leave your lover, leave him for me.
Leave your lover, leave him for me.

We sit in bars and raise our drinks to growing old
Oh, I'm in love with you and you will never know,
But if I can't have you I'll walk this life alone
Spare you the rising storms and let the rivers flow

You'll never know the endless nights, the rhyming of the rain
Or how it feels to fall behind and watch you call his name

Pack up and leave everything,
Don't you see what I can bring
Can't keep this beating heart at bay
Set my midnight sorrow free,
I will give you all of me
Just leave your lover, leave him for me
Leave your lover, leave him for me.
Leave your lover, leave him for me.
