[Verse 1]

E         B
Turn away
                      C#m
If you could get me a drink
                   Am                   
Of water 'cause my lips are chapped and faded
        E          B
Call my Aunt Marie
                       C#m
Help her gather all my things
               Am
And bury me in all my favorite colors
   F#m            A           B
My sisters and my brothers still,
  G#/C     C#m
I will not kiss you
 Am          F#m              B               E
'Cause the hardest part of this is leavin' you


[Verse 2]

    E         B
Now turn away
                         C#m
'Cause I'm awful just to see
                      Am              
'Cause all my hair's abandoned all my body
      E      B
Oh my agony
                       C#m
Know that I will never marry
               Am            
Baby, I'm just soggy from the chemo
    F#m               A        B
But countin' down the days to go
   G#/C       C#m
It just ain't livin'
          Am
And I just hope you know


[Chorus]

     E
That if you say
    Eaug
Goodbye today
    C#m          
I'd ask you to be true
           F#m               B              C#  Caug  E/B  E(B5)/Bb
'Cause the hardest part of this is leavin' you
           F#m               B              E
'Cause the hardest part of this is leavin' you
