Why Did You Leave Me Today(Chords)

	        A              E 
For so long we worked so hard 
B 
We didn't have a dime 
A              E 
But we had one anothers love 
B 
And that was all the time. 
A               F#m 
Then one day our ship came in 
    D               Bm 
The answer to our dreams 
A                     F#m            D               E 
A mansion filled with social life and gold and limousines. 
D           C#m      G 
Why did you leave me today 
G               Gm          D  A 
I was going to give you the world 
D            C#m          G Gm 
I watched my dream  slip away 
          D               A        D   G  D 
All I can say why did you leave    today. 
A                      E 
As I walked thru these grand old halls 
B 
I feel so cold inside 
A                   E 
I stare upon these  grand old walls 
B 
And all the costly prizes 
A           F#m          D 
I realize I gladly trade them, these worldly things 
A                 F#m 
To lie beside you one more time 
    D                  E 
And share only our dreams. 
D           C#m      G 
Why did you leave me today 
G               Gm          D     A 
I was going to give you the world 
D            C#m          G Gm 
I watched my dream  slip away 
          D               A        D   G  D 
All I can say why did you leave    today.
