VERSE:

D

Hold on honey I'd like to say

I'm busting out and breaking away

G

I'm letting you go like a hot horse shoe

D

I can't take another heart ache from you

VERSE:

Think about how it's gonna be

When you start back to needing me

When your dancing shoes have lost their shine

I'm gonna be gone in mine

CHORUS:

G LOW E --3--5--6--7----

I'm leaving now

D LOW E --3b--3b--0-----

I'm leaving now

A

Get out of my face

G

Get out of my place

A

I'm leaving now, adios

D

I'm leaving now

VERSE:

And the time it comes when you trim the fat

Feed the kitchen scraps to the front seat cat

Bye bye baby when the bills come due

You might have to sell a jewel or two

VERSE:

Eat your heart out anyway

It's hard as your head and it's cold as clay

It's all over now you won't have me

Your sugar daddy or your money tree

CHORUS:

I'm leaving now yeah

I'm leaving now

Get out of my space

Get out of my face

I'm leaving now, hey hey

I'm leaving now

VERSE:

Pull up the collar on my traveling coat

Sell that miserable pleasure boat

I wouldn't give another nickel for another buck

I'm living on muscle, guts, and luck

VERSE:

If anybody asks where did I go

Tell 'em I went where the wild goose goes

I wouldn't have me an area code

Don't have a number, don't need a row

CHORUS:

I'm leaving now, me to

I'm leaving now

Get out of my face

Get out of my space

I'm leaving now, adios

I'm leaving now

"PICK AT IT !!" - INSTRUMENTAL - START A PICKIN' N' A GRINNIN'

CHORUS:

I'm leaving now

I'm leaving now

Get out of my space

Get out of my face

I'm leaving now, adios

I'm leaving now
