I [Em] shoulda stayed gone
When I left before
‘Cause you do me [Am] wrong
When we’re together
But I keep coming back
Oh, [Em] Lord.

But when I [C] leave this time
[Bm] Make sure it’s understood
That this [Em] time, I’m gone for good
Many times I’ve left you
But I couldn’t stay away too long
Thank God for the [Am] strength He gave e
To leave home and still be [Em] strong.

When I [Am] leave this time
Lord, make sure
It’s understand that
This time, I’m gone for [Em] good.

[Em] It’s been warm outside
But for me, but for me
There’s been no sunshine
So [Am] hard for me to leave
But I finally made up my [Em] mind.

So when I [C] leave this time
[Bm] Make sure it’s understood
That this [Em] time, I’m gone for good
I gotta leave you, girl
I ain’t gonna let you
Worry me no [Am] more
Just make sure it’s [Em] understood
That I’m gonna leave for good
So this time when I leave
Make sure it’s understood
This time I’m gone for good
The next time you see me
I will be walking out that door
I’m gone
