The Guy Who Leaves Lyrics & Chords By Alanis Morissette

Dad, oh don't get up, I beg you to sit tight
Sweet girl, I'll be a ghost girl , forget it I am fine

If anything a witnessing is all I needed that night

Until I get what I'm to get
You'll keep being compelled to flee
Until I out this false story
You'll keep playing "the guy who leaves"

Brother, oh, brother , solo you did bust out
All I knew was you didn't invite me, so begins themes of self-doubt

There is nothing as harrowing as how I translate backs

Until I get what I'm to get
You'll keep being compelled to flee
Until I out this false story
You'll keep playing "the guy who leaves"

Baby, oh partner, how well you've played this part
Similar, oh how familiar, reluctant truth you impart

And how you serve necessity: "repeat 'til she sees light"

Until I get what I'm to get
You'll keep being compelled to flee
Until I out this false story
You'll keep playing "the guy who leaves".
