Intro: D   D/C#  D    G 

(Verse 1)
  
D               D/C# 
In our cold and empty house  
D                   G 
I lingered now for far too long  
D                D/C# 
I vainly held the rosary  
D                 G 
To pray you'd stay with me a while 

D                    D/C# 
But nothing seems to keep me here  
D                  G 
The way it used to do before  
D                        D/C# 
This time it's me that's leaving you  
D               G 
I'll never turn around 

(Bridge)
  
Asus2          D          G 
Cause when the laughter's gone  
Asus2          D          G 
I know I must be moving on 

 
Em7                      G 
And I will dance when I walk away  
              D          
Oh, I'm gonna sing  
D/C#            Asus2 
I won't beg or pray  
Em7                  G 
I will dance when I walk away  
              D 
Oh, I'm gonna sing  
               Asus2 
I won't beg or pray  
No more 


(Verse 2) 
 
D                   D/C# 
I'm standing at the crossroads now  
D                   G 
The fields of opportunity  
D               D/C# 
I'm ready to go anywhere  
D                     G 
I'm full of hope and full of fear 

D                     D/C# 
And bridges back have all been burned  
D                     G 
And freedom has been duly earned  
D                     D/C# 
I'll remember why I've gone  
D                  G 
Remember where I'm coming from 


(Bridge)
  
Asus2         D         G     G 
Oh, when the laughter's gone, uuhuu  
Asus2         D         G     G 
I know I must be moving on 


  
Em7                      G 
And I will dance when I walk away  
              D 
Oh, I'm gonna sing  
D/C#           Asus2 
I won't beg or pray  
Em7                 G 
I will dance when I walk away  
               D 
Oh, I'm gonna sing  
D/C#        Asus2 
I won't beg or pray 

Interlude:  Em7  Dsus4 

Bb 
And now I leave my mask with you  
Cm 
The part I played I never knew  
Asus2 
Tonight you're alone 

  
And I will dance when I walk away  
Oh, I'm gonna sing  
I won't beg or pray  
I will dance when I walk away  
Oh, I'm gonna sing  
I won't beg or pray 
Oh, this is not a home for me (3x)
