THAT'S NOT THE PART OF HIM YOU'RE LEAVING

DI (xx0232@1)have a friend
She's just a friend
...............G
I tried to comfort and defend
................................................D
I gave her what you might call advice
...................................................E.........A
But nothing like that comes without a price
...................D
The rumour was a cruel surprise
....................G
And she dissolved before my eyes
.................................................G/f#.....Em
I offered my hand and hers and mine entwined
........................................................................A...................D
I thought about back then when I wished that she had been mine

............................G......G/f#.....Em
There's no use in shedding any tears
..........................D........................
He's no good to you the way he is
G........G/f#......Em...............A7
He's beyond forgiving and believing
.................D
Half of his heart is torn like paper
.........................G.........G/f#......Em
It's sweet as the syrup from the maple
............................A..........................D
But that's not the part of him you're leaving
