Intro: G  G  C  G

G                                                  
My bags are packed, I guess it's time for me to go,

G                                                      
I can't say where I'm headed, 'cause I just don't know.

       C                        G                            
When I think of what I'll be losing, it's hard to move along,

         C                         D                      G    
But it's harder just to stay here, knowing that I don't belong.

G                                                  
I'll be in touch, don't worry, I'll be calling you,

G                                                  
I've got no plans, I'm not sure where I'm going to.

     C                    G                                      
It's hard to keep from crying, after all that we've been through,

     C                        D                              G   
I've taken everything I need, now all that's left belongs to you.


G                                                
You take the photographs, the ones of you and me,

G                                                   
When we both posed and laughed to please the family.

C                                        
Nobody noticed then we wanted to be free,

    G                                                
And now there's no more love, it's just the property.

     C                    G                                      
It's hard to keep from crying, after all that we've been through.

C                                              G    
Now that it's all over, now that you and I are free,

C                                                G  
Now there's nothing left except the bit of property.

C                                                  G  
Started off with nothing, started off just you and me,

C                                             G  
Now that it's all over you can keep the property.

G                                                   
And all the little gifts we thought we'd throw away,

G                                          
The useless souvenirs bought on a holiday.

C                                                     
We put them on the shelf, now they're collecting dust,

   G                                        
We never needed them, but they outlasted us.
