----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuning: Standard
Artist: John Prine
Album: In Spite Of Ourselves
Year: 1999
Intro:
So long we've been married
Life's burdens we carried
Though faith kept us humble and made our love true
But plans that we make up
Someone seems to break up
Oh darlin what else can we do?
Chorus:
We may have to leave here
To find peace of mind, dear
Someplace where we can live a life of our own
I know you love me And happy we could be
If some folks would leave us alone
When I go out walkin
Theres lots of loose talkin
They say we're unhappy and we'll drift apart
But darlin' it's not true
Because I still love you
And I do with all of my heart
(Repeat Chorus)
Break:
They say you are leavin
That you are deceivin
But you tell me they say the same about me
Oh, but we'll show them they're wrong
That loose talk can do harm
And hope that the truth they will see
(Repeat Chorus)
If some folks would leave us alone
