Lyrics

Leavin’ Time 6/09 Robert Hartford copyright, all rights reserved

Lead guitar intro – G – D – C Slow Shuffle, country/blues feel

G C
It’s a long Slow dance in the morning time
G
Pack it all in
D
Get ready to go
G C
One more time to say how sorry I am
A
But there’s nothing to say
A
And nothing to do
C D7
I always thought I’d be lovin you
C D G
It’ leavin time, and I’m movin slow
C D G
It’s leavin time, and I’m movin slow

After all this time how can this be
It just couldn’t happen
To you and me
Now you’re thinking that you’re finally free
Leavin behind the tears and the pain
Hopin to find some love again
It’s leavin time, and I’m movin slow
It’s leavin time, and I’m movin slow

Cm
A little slip of paper
G
With your name upon the back
Cm G
Hidden in pocket long ago
Cm
Kisses on those summer nights
G
That lasted O so long
A D
Who ever thought we’d ever let it go

Guitar Break, verse only into, Bruce has Break

Vocal Chorus

Now we’re free from a tangled web
It should be so easy
And plain to see
Sweet memories of a lover’s bed
There’s no place to go
And no need to stay
I never thought I’d be going away
It’s leavin Time, and I’m movin slow
It’s leavin time and I’m movin slow
