I Was Just Leaving

Lyrics

When I opened the front door, you looked so surprised
Like you weren't expecting someone quite my size
But I know by those roses, you're calling on a friend
Well, I was just leaving - so just you walk right on in.

If I'd left as early as I always do
I would not be standing face to face here with you
I guess you make her happy, and that's all well and good
I was just leaving; now I think I should.

You want what I've got, and she must want you
Now I'm odd man out in a game meant for two...
Sometimes your best move is just to move on
I was just leaving, but now I'll be gone

       G                          C              G
When I opened the front door, you looked so surprised
     G                                       D
Like you weren't expecting someone quite my size
       G                           G7           C
But I know by those roses, you're calling on a friend
      C           G                    D             G   D
Well, I was just leaving - so just you walk right on in.
 
 
If I'd left as early as I always do
I would not be standing face to face here with you
I guess you make her happy, and that's all well and good
C           G           D         G        G7 
I was just leaving; now I think I should.
 
 
C                                         G
You want what I've got, and she must want you
    C                     A              D
Now I'm odd man out in a game meant for two...
G                            G7          C
Sometimes your best move is just to move on
C           G            D           G     D
I was just leaving, but now I'll be gone
