Sometimes You Leave Acoustic chords

Sometimes You Leave Acoustic

• F

So this is one of my favorite Carrie songs EVER but there's no chords for it 
anywhere. So I figured out my own acoustic version of it.

Anyway, since the songs is like, ALL piano, it doesn't translate well to guitar, 
so this isn't supposed sound exactly like the REAL song...it's just an acoustic 
version. If you want the long ending (like in the song), it's just the intro 
repeating itself, just be creative with it. (: To get the timing and strumming 
right just listen to the song, it's pretty easy to figure out.

Also, it's supposed to be capo on 4th, but I personally think it sounds better on 
the 3rd...I prefer singing it that way at least.



Capo on 4th



Intro: 
once each F  C  Em  Am 
strum F  C  Em  Am


F       C        Em      Am
All the raindrops in the sky tonight
F        C                  Em               Am                F
Can't compare with all the pain and all the tears I've cried
F    C       G once
But now I'm done
F       C             Em              Am
All the make-believe locked in this picture frame
F         C           Em                Am             F
Is gonna stay behind along with all the burning rage
F           C                   G
That's been tearing through my heart
F                        C                      G
Killing me slowly, every beat I was falling apart


F
Sometimes you give
C
Sometimes they take
G
Sometimes you bend
F                  Em        Am
And sometimes they break you down
                     Em               Am
Sometimes you stick around trying to change them,
            F                        Am once
Make them someone that they'll never be
 No chord  F  C  Em  Am
And sometimes you leave


F        C               Em      Am
All this time I've spent staring at the door
F        C                                  Am              F
I never had the strength to pack my bags and leave before
F   C       G
But now I'm done
F                          C                         G
Lying to myself when it's clear that you're not the one

F
Sometimes you give
C
Sometimes they take
G
Sometimes you bend
F                  Em        Am
And sometimes they break you down
                     Em               Am
Sometimes you stick around trying to change them,
            F                        Am 
Make them someone that they'll never be
            C
And sometimes you leave

                G      Em    Am              C
When there's nothing left for me to leave behind
              G    Em   Am                  C  G
And you're already too far gone to say goodbye


F once
Sometimes you give
C once
Sometimes they take
G once
Sometimes you bend
F once         Em once    Am strum
And sometimes they break you down
                      Em              Am
Sometimes you stick around trying to change them,
             F                      Am once
Make them someone that they'll never be
          Em once
And sometimes you leave
no chord  F  C  Em  Am  
Sometimes you leave

F  C  Em  Am once
