         F    Ebmaj7            Dm7           Cm7
Laying in the afterglow, I only want to learn what you know 
              Gm
But now you're leaving 
    F          Ebmaj7       Dm7       Cm7
How many hearts must you break?   How many calls must I make? 
              Bb
But now you're leaving 
 
      F            Bb7           Eb
In this world all that I choose has come unbearable 
  Ebm            Dm7          Cm7            Dsus4  D
But love is in your touch, ooh, it's killing me so much 
 
       Gm                 F            Ebmaj7       Dm7
Only when you leave, I'll need to love you and when the action has all gone 
              Cm7                Dsus4              D
I'm just a little fool enough to need you,      fool enough too long 
       Gm               F             Ebmaj7           Dm7
Only when you leave, you'll leave in danger, oh, I'll make sure that you pay 
           Cm7                Dsus4                D
So give a little passion to a stranger       and take this soul away 
 
Gm  F  Ebmaj7  Dm7  Cm7  Gm 

         F         Ebmaj7               Dm7       Cm7
I only want to make things last, so how could this have gone so fast? 
             Gm
And now you're leaving 
    F       Ebmaj7                  Dm7        Cm7
How many times must I learn? It's only when you've gone that I burn 
             Bb
And now you're leaving 
 
     F            Bb7           Eb
In the end, all that is left has come unbearable 
     Ebm           Dm7     Cm7         Dsus4    D
It's hard to change your mind so leave it all behind 
 
       Gm                 F            Ebmaj7       Dm7
Only when you leave, I'll need to love you and when the action has all gone 
              Cm7                Dsus4              D
I'm just a little fool enough to need you,      fool enough too long 
       Gm               F             Ebmaj7           Dm7
Only when you leave, you'll leave in danger, oh, I'll make sure that you pay 
           Cm7                Dsus4                D
So give a little passion to a stranger       and take this soul away
