[Verse 1]
G
Don’t nobody tell me
C                                           G
That God don’t have a sense of humor
‘Cause now that I want to live
C                                      G
Well, everybody around me is dying
Bb                                      C
Now that I finally wanna live
Am                    G
The ones I love are dyin’
G7
Becoming friends with a noose that I made
C                                      G
And I keep tryin’ to untie it
Make it into something useful
C                                                        G
Or maybe hang it through a window pane
D          C                    G
Turn it into a fire escape

And who’s gonna lose me?

How to play Leave It Alone: key, chords and progression

Leave It Alone by Hayley Williams is centred on F major (one flat: B♭). The song uses 12 chords: G, C, Bb, Am, G7, D, Gm, Dm, F, Cm, Eb and Ab.

The progression the song keeps returning to is Gm – Dm – C – Gm (ii – vi – V – ii in F major). In solfa, that is reh – lah – soh – reh. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 3rd fret and play the shapes E, A, G, F#m, E7, B, Em, Bm, D, Am (67% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 50% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
