  Rea - son           lea-ve them  go  -   o           leave them   go
 
Verse 2
         D                                   G             D
None so weary – as the traveller – when he’s weighed down – in his soul
       E                Em                             D    G          D   Stop
And you must bear it – like a pilgrim – and leave then go - leave them go
 
 
Chorus
   D               F#m               G           Gm
   Everybody       knows the pain it is to lose
 
    D               F#m            G
And no-one wants to see or make a show
 
      D                E       Em               D
She’s not that kind of woman ~     so leave her go
 
 
Verse 3
 
          D               Dmaj7               G                D
Leave the sailor - to the seaway – leave the shepherd - to the fold
                 E                    Em
And leave your loved one - to her chosen –
               D     G         D
and leave then go – leave them go
 
 
 
Chorus
D         F#m               G           Gm
Everybody knows the pain it is to lose
    D              F#m            G
And no-one wants to see or make a show
      D                E       Em               D
She’s not that kind of woman ~     so leave her go

          D               Dmaj7               G                D
Leave the sailor - to the seaway – leave the shepherd - to the fold
                 E                    Em
And leave your loved one - to her chosen –
               D     G         D
and leave then go – leave them go
 
G          D
leave then go
