"Every time you leave" (Plaskett)
From "Three" (2009)
Play all B chords J.J. Cale style shuffle (hammer on A string 11th fret).
The girls' part starts in the second verse but is included with chords
in the first verse for clarity's sake.
B
You break a few bones, you break a few nails
A E B
(Every time you leave me 'lone)
B
It’s like you set me down when you set your sails
A E B
(Every time you leave me 'lone)
B A E B
You send a few letters but they’re never enough
F# E B
It gets rough, every time you leave me 'lone
I don’t do so good on my own
I need a telescope, not a telephone
Stray cat strutting through a snowy backyard
It gets hard, every time you pick up and go
G#m F#m E B
Table seats four and a couch seats three
G#m F#m E
Bed for two and a chair for me
G#m F#m E B
Tweedle Dum, where’s Tweedle Dee?
Sitting by the fire and watching it burn,
Things feel different when you return
They say that "good things come to those who stay"
Come on and stay! Why d’ya gotta go away?
(Why'dya always gotta take the long way home?)
Why d’ya always gotta take the long way home?
