[VERSE 1]
D Am Em7 Em7/B Bm7 E7 bar
Wednesday morning at five o'clock as the day begins
A7sus4 A9
Silently closing her bedroom door
A7sus4 A9
Leaving the note that she hoped would say more
D Am Em7 Em7/B Bm7 E7 bar
She goes downstairs to the kitchen clutching her handkerchief
A7sus4 A9
Quietly turning the backdoor key
A7sus4 A9
Stepping outside she is free

[CHORUS 1]
D
She (We gave her most of our lives)
D
Is leaving (Sacrificed most of our lives)
Am6
Home (We gave her everything money could buy)
Bm E7 Bm E7 bar
She's leaving home after living alone for so many years

[VERSE 2]
D Am Em7 Em7/B Bm7 E7 bar
Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown
A7sus4 A9
Picks up the letter that's lying there
A7sus4 A9
Standing alone at the top of the stairs
D Am Em7 Em7/B Bm7 E bar
She breaks down and cries to her husband Daddy our baby's gone
A7sus4 A9
Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly?
A7sus4 A9
How could she do this to me?

[CHORUS 2]
D
She (We never though of ourselves)
D
Is leaving (Never a thought for ourselves)
Am6
Home (We struggled hard all our lives to get by)
Bm E7 Bm E7 bar
She's leaving home after living alone for so many years

[VERSE 3]
D Am Em7 Em7/B Bm7 E7 bar
Friday morning at nine o'clock she is far away
A7sus4 A9
Waiting to keep the appointment she made
A7sus4 A9
Meeting a man from the motor trade

[CHORUS 3]
D
She (What did we do that was wrong)
D
Is having (We didn't know it was wrong)
Am6
Fun (Fun is the one thing that money can't buy)
Bm E7 Bm E7 bar
Something inside that was always denied for so many years
Bm E7 G D
She's leaving home, bye bye
