HOW CAN I LEAVE YOU AGAIN? (John Denver)
D Em A A7sus4
D
In a spaceship over the mountains
Em7 G D
chasing rainbows in the setting sun
G Em7 D Bm
leaving heart and home for the city of angels
Em7 A
I feel my life is undone
D
There are pathways winding below me
Em7 G D
In pleasure I’ve gone where they go
G Em7 D Bm
In the quiet stillness, I can hear symphonies,
Em7 A
the loveliest music I know
(Chorus)
Em7 A D Bm
How can I leave you again?
Em7 A F#m7 Bm
I must be clear out of my mind
Em7 F#m G
Lost in a storm I’ve gone blind
Em7 A D
Oh, how can I leave you again?
(Bridge)
Em7 D
Oh, it’s been a long time since I’ve listened
Em7 D
still longer since I’ve walked with you
Em7 D
For the first time I know what I’m missing
Em C A A7sus
Some answers are no longer true….. so I
(Verse 2)
D
question the course that I follow
Em7 G D
I’m doubtful, deep in despair
G Em7 D Bm
My heart is filled with impossible notions
Em7 A
Can it be you no longer care?
D
Still I ride on the wings of a high wind
Em7 G D
blowing steady and strong behind me
G Em7 D Bm
As the clouds surrender, my fate is for certain —
Em7 A
I’m a sailor who runs to the sea… but (to chorus)
