Subject: If I'd Left It Up To You by Merle Haggard

                   If I'd Left It Up To You

[C]You made plans to leave a [F]thousand times I [C]know,
And a [G]thousand times I should have let you [C]go.
But each time I'd always [F]beg you back [C]somehow,
If I'd [G]left it up to you, it would all be over [C]now.

It would [G]all be over now, except the [C]crying,
I'd be [G]used to spending all my time [C]alone.
Wish I'd found a way to [F]let you go [C]somehow,
If I'd [G]left it up to you, it would all be over [C]now.

[C]  [F]  [C]  [G]  [C]

It would [G]all be over now, except the [C]crying,
I'd be [G]used to spending all my time [C]alone.
Wish I'd found a way to [F]let you go [C]somehow,
If I'd [G]left it up to you, it would all be over [C]now.
