Subject: CRD: Leaving home ain't easy - Queen
Somebody requested this one. Here is my humble contribution.
I should mention that it's next to impossible to make something out of this
song without extensive back vocals.All the harmony is there,as a matter of fact
But anyway...
Leaving Home Ain't Easy

Queen, Jazz 1979

I take a step outside and I breathe the air And I slam the door and I'm on
my way
I won't lay no blame I won't call you names 'Cause I've made my break
(??)
And I won't look back I've turned my back to those endless games.
The second verse is the same except :
.... Shaking dust from my shoes There's a road ahead And there's no way back
home (No way) But I have to say
Lea - vin' home ain't easy (Oh I never thought it would be easy)
Lea - vin' all you own (Oh is the main thing calling me back ?)
Lea - vin' home ain't ea - sy ( On the one you're leaving home)
Stay my love ..... etc the same as intro.
The rest is the same, except for the last but one time the chorus is played:
Leavin home ain't ne ce ssa ry Leave the on ly way
Enjoy!
"Fat Bottomed Girls" are coming your way. So get on your bikes and ride !
