[Verse 1]
    A
You packed in the morning, I 
A7
stared out the window and I 
A6                         D
struggled for something to say    
    D                        A
You left in the rain without closing the door
Bm                     Esus  E
I didn't stand in your way.
 
[Chorus]
    A
Now I miss you more than I 
A7
missed you before and now 
A6                      D
where I'll find comfort God knows

[Verse 2]
    A
Now most every morning I 
A7
stare out the window and I 
A6                          D
think about where you might be
     D                        A
I've written you letters that I'd like to send
Bm                            Esus  E
If you would just send one to me
 
[Chorus]
        A
'Cause  I need you more than I 
A7
needed before and now 
A6                      D
where I'll find comfort God knows
       D   A
'Cause you   left me 
E                      A   A/B A/C#
just when I needed you most
D    A          E                      A
        left me just when I needed you most

heavenwise
I'm playing this on the piano and I'm using Bm on "I didn't stand in your" and then E7 on "way" then E. Then again as given, then in the chorus I'm playing D "You..." A "left me" then Dbm/E "just when I needed you" A "most". I think it adds to the melancholy and - at least on piano - is nearer to the original. And then I'm leading over to the chorus repeat after the A ("most") with Bm then Dbm... then on with D "You..." A "left me" then Dbm/E "just when I needed you" A "most". I'm not a guitar player though and don't mean any offence. It's just how I like to play it on piano.
