Intro:

Bb, F, C, Gm, F

Oh I know it’s time to go

Back out on on your own

Bb F

And I know you’re leaving me

I wish that you

Would wait for me

But I can already see

Bb F

That you are leaving me

Please don’t tell me in a letter

Please don’t tell me on the phone

I just wish that you would wait

Wait for me to come home

Am F

Heres a little song that I wrote for you

My heart is slowly breaking got me feeling blue

Cause I know

You’re leaving me for him

I could see this coming from a mile away

My sun is slowly turning into rainy days

And I know

Theres nothing left to say

And so I pick up my heart

And dust it off again

It’s gonna hurt me so much

To see your face again

Oh I know it’s time to go

Back out on on your own

Wait for me to come home

But I hope

He does the same for you

Dm F

Love is such a crazy thing that we go through

Make sure you tell the one you love before its you

Yeah you

Are singing this song too

And so I pick up my heart

And dust it off again

It’s gonna hurt me so much

To see your face again

Oh I know it’s time to go

Back out on on your own

Bb F

And I know you’re leaving me

I wish that you

Would wait for me

But I can already see

Wait for me to come home
