[Verse Rhythm]
C Am F Dm C
at a party he was waiting looking kind of spooky and withdrawn
C Am F Dm C
like he could be underwater the mighty mother with her hundred arms
C Am F Dm C
swept all aside i hate to walk behind
C Am F Dm
other people's ambition i saw you waiting
[Chorus Rhythm]
G G7 G
saint like with your warning
F Am F G
leave alone you don't belong here
he got nervous
started whistling
every thought a ricochet
did you notice?
well i wondered
what's the worst thing i could say?
and i froze up and sighed
you remind me of someones daughter
i forgot her
i forgot her name ashamed
go home and live with your pain
leave alone
leave alone 'cos you know you don't belong
you don't belong here
and when i go
don't you follow
leave alone
leave alone 'cos you know you don't belong
you don't belong here
slip out quiet
nobody's looking
leave alone
you don't belong here
