Leave The Rest Behind

Leave the Rest Behind – Douglas W. Fielder

[G] Nestled nicely with your [C] arm under my head
[G] Never felt like this [C] before [walkdown to G]
[G] Staring at your face just [C] laying on my bed
[G] I [Em] think of nothing [D] more

[C] There’s a dream I had a [G] long time [Em] ago
[A7+] You were [A7] laying here back [D] then
[C] But I’m not dreaming now and [G] one thing I [Em] know
[A7] This is where we [D] begin [Walkdown to G]

[G] When you open up your [C] eyes and start to smile
[G] I just brighten up [C] inside [Walkdown]
[G] We embrace and hold each [C] other for a while
[G] and [Em] I start to [D] confide

[C] I have loved you since the [G] day we first [Em] met
[A7+] But I [A7] had to wait in [D] line
[C] It was worth it but I [G] have one [Em] regret
[A7] That we wasted so much [D] time [Walkdown]

[G] I’ll be here for you from [C] this day to my last
[G] I won’t ever walk [C] away [Walkdown]
[G] Know inside your heart that [C] our love has been cast
[G] Into [Em] something that will [D] stay

[C] I look forward to [G] eternity with [Em] you
[A7+] All [A7] the planets have [D] aligned
[C] Hold me tight and tell me [G] that you love me [Em] too
[A7] We’ll leave all the rest [D] behind [Walkdown]
