[Verse 1]
G                        B7
E|--Th| ere's nothing left inside me, honey
Em      D         C
You can call your own
G                     B7
E|--No| landmark you can recognize
   Em         D          C
No place that feels like home
           A             A7
You better leave it alone
           Cm        D
You better leave, it all
 G        G
Alone

[Verse 2]
G                           B7
E|--Th| ere's nothing left that I possess
       Em   D       C
You'll ever want to steal
G                B7
E|--No| one you can talk to here
   Em        D       C
No bargains, no good deals
           A             A7
You better leave it alone
           Cm        D
You better leave, it all
 G
Alone

[Chorus 1]
           C7
Because we don't want to press our luck
          G7
And maybe make that well run dry
   C7
Ya know we both been betting on rain
          G7
But there ain't a cloud in the sky
    C7
And how can I convince you
               G7
That you'll be richer by yourself
     C7
Your good faith only makes me poor
       G
Please spend it someplace else

[Verse 3]
         G              B7
I got no good dreams to paint your sleep
   Em       D         C
No place to rest your head
G                      B7
E|--To| night you'd better go on home
    Em     D        C
And cry in your own bed
           A             A7
You better leave it alone
           Cm       D
You better leave it all
 G        G
Alone

[Verse 4]
G                      B7
--How many tough miles --have we traveled
     Em      D       C
Like bandits side by side
G                       B7
--But now our boots are wearing thin
              Em  D      C
We're feeling so dissatisfied
          A             A7
We better leave it alone
          Cm        D
We better leave, it all
 G
Alone

[Chorus 2]
           C7
Because we don't want to press our luck
          G7
And maybe make that well run dry
   C7
Ya know we both been betting on rain
          G7
But there ain't a cloud in the sky
    C7
And how can I convince you
          G7
You'll be richer by yourself
     C7
Your good faith only makes me poor
       G
Please spend it someplace else

[Verse 5]
G                 B7
E|--Th| e carnival is leaving town
   Em    D      C
We never got to go
G                    B7
--But I've been your fire eater
               Em    D   C
You've been my whole goddamned sideshow
       A             A7
Better leave it alone
           Cm       D
You better leave it all
 G        G
Alone

[Verse 6]
G                 B7
E|--Th| e next time I think of you
        Em           D      C
I'll be staying in a blue motel
G                              B7
--I'll wonder about how you're cutting your hair
Em      D    C
Prob'ly even wish you well
      A             A7
Let's leave it alone
      Cm
Let's leave, it
D
All
 G
Alone

[Coda]
          C7
Ya better leave it alone
          G7
Ya better leave it all alone
          C7
Ya better leave it a-leave it alone
          G7
Ya better leave it all alone
          C7
Ya better leave it alone
          G7
Ya better leave it all alone
          C7
Ya better leave it a-leave it alone
          G7
Ya better leave it all alone
     C7
All alone
