Time For the Leaving (easy)   Magna Carta


    E                       G#m
The wind blows the ashes of summer,
    F#m                              E      D     A
and pulls the tar paper face on the hooding
    E                   G#m
the marmalade cat, with dark mangled ears
F#m                              E
slips through the fence without speaking
           F#m
this is my world and home   
A                                                E
football and marbles and coming home late if you dare   

E                              G#m
I       look at the face in the mirror,
  F#m                                   E    D     A
I know it so well, but I don’t know at all    
        E                         G#m
and the child books are weary, and fade on the shelves
     F#m                            E
with things that were precious now dusty   
           F#m
this is my yesterday   
        A                              E
and the friends that I knew,  have all gone    

B
now                    
    A
and now        
E                              F#
now                      is the time         
        E   D    A     E
for the leavin’

      E                      G#m
in a corner she sits,  by the fire
    F#m                           E    D     A
she seeks the words that somehow elude her
        E                 G#m
and the yesterday face,  a picture with moustache
      F#m                          E
looks down to the ground from the mantelpiece
           F#m
this is my world alone    
    A                                                 E
the blue cotton dress and the man on the cross on the wall    

     E                        G#m
then why must you go,  are the words that she’s found
           F#m                      E    D     A
there’s a job in the paper, that’s firm   
     E                    G#m
five minutes from home and the pay is real good
        F#m                         E
and the prospects get better, they say    
          F#m
how can I tell you now     
     A                           E
good bye       must be all I can say         

    B
and now                    
    A
and now        
E                              F#
now                      is the time         
        E
for the leavin’
    B
and now                    
    A
and now        
E                              F#
now                      is the time         
        E    D    A    E
for the leavin’
        E    D    A    E
(repeat to fade)
