[Intro]
  F Dm  C
|     |   |
[Verse 1]
  Dm                      Bb               C                F
Although the years have changed now and we go by different names
    F             Dm        C
I remember the sound of our roof in the rain
        Bb               Dm        C          F
And my mind goes back in time to a place so far gone
          F               Dm               C
Where the love we left behind us was still new
[Verse 2]
        Dm                Bb         C            F
We were listenin' to a record on the end of your bed
    F                 Dm                C
Not givin' thought to where it was all goin'
F/A    Bb                    Dm             C                  F
 And I wished right then and there so badly I could read your mind
        F                  Dm                    C
Just so I could know the things that you were knowin'
[Chorus]
     F Dm         C   Cadd9 C
I believe, yes, I do
    Bb               Dm    C               F
The hardest part is always leaving love behind
     F Dm7        C   Cadd9 C
I believe, yes, I do
     Bb              Dm      C            F
That everything we lose will be a gift in time
        F               Dm             C
But the hardest part is leaving love behind
[Verse 3]
     Dm              Bb                C                 F
When it was time to say goodbye, those words came down like stones
    F               Dm            C
I admit for so long after it was hard to feel at home
         Bb                 Dm             C            F
We would hear the highway's song shifting down in the night
      F                  Dm                C
I was grateful that the echoes broke the quiet
[Chorus]
     F Dm         C
I believe, yes, I do
    Bb               Dm    C               F
The hardest part is always leaving love behind
     F Dm7        C
I believe, yes, I do
     Bb              Dm      C            F
That everything we lose will be a gift in time
        F               Dm             C
But the hardest part is leaving love behind

[Verse 4]
    Dm               Bb            C                  F
The sun fades on me now and I miss you like words can't know
      F                 Dm            C
And I missed my shot at dyin' young a long time ago
            Bb                 Dm             C              F
It's just a lesson learned in love, it's not angry, it's not sad
    F                    Dm           C                   Cadd9 C
Sometimes you gotta lose something to know what you have
[Chorus]
     F         Dm             C
I believe (I believe), yes, I do
    Bb               Dm    C               F
The hardest part is always leaving love behind
     F         Dm             C
I believe (I believe), yes, I do
         Bb             Dm       C            F
Oh, that everything we lose will be a gift in time
     F          Dm7           C
(I believe) I believe (Yes, I do)
    F               Dm             C
The hardest part is leaving love behind
