"Leave Me Alone" by Jude Cole
Written by Jude Cole
From the album "Falling Home"
Watertown Records, 2000
Capo 1st Fret
,
Did you have something to say
Or were you just drinkin' again
Did you call me up to see if I was alone?
Drinkin' down those last call blues
And wearin' out your wedding shoes
Wishin' your life was your own
I've been thinkin' about the way
You sparkled when you fell for him
You wore it on your face and your new dress
Sneakin' around on my dime
Finally your spotlight shined
Congratulations, I guess
CHORUS:
Leave me alone, leave me alone
All the judges and the lawyers have gone home
Leave me alone, just leave me alone
You're not my hell now
Get off my phone
I heard about the A-frame
That sits way up on Bunker Hill
You were the star of every room, I'm told
Fame is fame at any price
It's just a roll of your soul dice, babe
Just don't get old
CHORUS (All the counselors and therapists have flown)
INSTRUMENTAL on VERSE chords
Did you have something to say
Or were you just drinkin' again?
Did you call me up to see if I was alone?
I cried when you shut me out
But all I feel is nothing now
For you and your heart of stone
CHORUS 3:
Leave me alone, leave me alone
All the jugglers and acrobats have taken all I own
Leave me alone, just leave me alone
You're not my hell now
This ain't your home
You're not my hell now
Get off my phone
