[Verse]
Em*                              G*
I left home in the middle of the night
Em*                                              A*
Took an eastbound train that headed straight for the light
Em*                                        G*
Got my ticket, thought I'd stick it to the man (Stick it to the man)
Em*                                            A  
And I left my name and my loose change in your bed
[Chorus]
I Dwon't keep you 'cause I Cknow you're in love
And it's Amnot in me anymore, and it's Cnot your fault
[Post-Chorus]
Bm*        G*       Bm*         G*
So I'll go left and you'll stay right
Bm*           A*                E  
And I'll step back here with my head held high
[Instrumental]
 Em   D   A(x2)
[Verse]
Em*                                       G*
Caught my feet up and I'm feeling kind of fine
Em*                                                A*
Til the sun goes down and I miss the brown in your eyes
Em*                                     G*
But I'll try to keep and stick into the plan (if I got a plan)
Em*                                            A  
And I'll stay awake and watch the shake of the land
[Chorus]
'DCause I won't sleep through now I Cknow you're in love
And it's Amnot in me anymore and it's Cnot your fault
[Post-Chorus]
Bm*        G*       Bm*         G*
So I'll go left and you'll stay right
Bm*           A*                E  
And I'll step back here with my head held high
[Chorus]
I Dwon't keep you 'cause I Cknow you're in love
And it's Amnot in me anymore and it's Cnot your fault
[Post-Chorus]

So I'll go left and you'll stay right

And I'll come back here with my head held high
