I’d Rather Leave While I’m In Love

(transcribed by Jim McGuire)

 

 

I’d rather leave while I’m in love while I still believe the meaning of the word

A…………F#m7…………….D………….C#7…F#………..Bm……………E

I’ll take my dreams and just pretend that you and I were never meant to end

A………….F#m7…………….D…………..C#7…F#………Bm…………….A#7

 

Too many times I’ve seen the rose die on the vine

F#………………………………..B………………A#7

Somebody’s heart gets broken usually it’s mine

F#……………………………………B………..A#7

I don’t wanna take the chance of being hurt again

G……………………………………..C…………D…

But you and I can’t say goodbye

..E…………….D………….E…..

 

 

So if you wake and find me gone oh baby carry on you see I need my fantasy

A……….F#m7……………….D……………..C#7..F#…………Bm……….A#7..

I still believe It’s best leave while I’m in love

C#7.F#…….Bm………E…………………A…

 

I’d rather leave…….. while I’m in love…

A………..F#m7..D….E…………..A..

 

Same chords as before

 

Too many times I’ve seen the rose die on the vine

Somebody’s heart gets broken usually it’s mine

I don’t wanna take the chance of being hurt again

But you and I can’t say goodbye

 

I’d rather leave while I’m in love while I’m in love

A………..F#m……………….D…..E………….A…

 

 

And just for a little aside I like to make this a small medley as follows

 

You and I can’t say goodbye

 

And ahahahahahI  will always love you oh I will always love you

A……….F#m…D………..E…………A……F#m…D..E……….A

 

 

And 2nd time around replace the word And I  with But I will
