INTRO;		G…Am..F…	G…A..Dm…	(Dm)…C.
		G…Am..F…	G…A..Dm…………
1.
G              Am           F
It seems true love is so rare
G              A          Dm  (Dm..C..)
seems all I've known is deceit
G              Am       F
your laughter fills the air
G             A         Dm
once more I'm sensing defeat

Chorus.
Bb         F         G          Dm
and I suppose you're leaving me now
Bb         F          G          Dm
I was so sure now I'm so full of doubt
Bb         F            G           Dm
and I suppose you'll be leaving this place
Bb              F       G             C
just like the smile you wiped from my face
       Bb          C          D…………
this time…….

2.
I always gave my best
your memory serves you so badly
some people kill for less
yet I'd still die for you gladly oh, so gladly

Chorus.
but I suppose it's my turn now
to play a scene that's familiar somehow
I turn the page and you walk away
not even love could bring you to stay
this time
C
walk away
   Bb
so easy
              C
once more I'm learning
       Bb
in the depths of my despair
          C
your lies confirming
             Dm………..(into keyboard solo)
true love is so rare

##### ( The rest of the song is played out in the chorus format with the same chords ) ######

and I suppose it's my turn now
there's no more love only feelings of doubt
gone with the hope your words have erased
gone with the smile you wiped from my face

love is a ship we all hope to steer
through troubled times cross an ocean of tears
a midnight sea that swells in your eyes
takes just one look to know I'm still mesmerized

but I suppose you're leaving me now
I was so sure now I'm so full of doubt
I turn the page and you walk away
Not even love could bring you to stay
this time

Bb                 F        G      Dm
Leaving me now
Bb                 F        G      Dm
Leaving this place
