It's hard to leave you all behind
             C                   G
Those loving smiles so sweet and kind

I love you all, you're part of me

With you I leave the heart of me

With every step I'm sure I'll find

A different loved one on my mind

[Verse]
           G      C           G
Without my friends here by my side

My destiny will be my guide

It's hard to leave the ones you love

But I can hope within my song

That after all it won't be long

But it is now I feel the pain
             C         G
I may not see you all again
      D/F#    Em   C  D        Bm   Em
There will be times I miss you so
             Am    D           G   Em
It's hard to leave, but I must go
             Am    D           C
It's hard to leave, but I must go
