He never knew what hit him
He never saw it coming at all
In his heart, he believed shed let him
Walk away, without a fight

Chorus
But (1st – he was) wrong, wrong, wrong
(2nd & 3rd – they were)
And now (1st & 2nd – hes) gone, gone, gone
(3rd – shes)
Nobody believed she was that strong
Dm C Dm 2X – Dm C
But, they were wrong, they were wrong

His friends said, go away and leave her
They said shell be alright in time
And for a moment, did anybody believe her
When she said, shed cut him down

Repeat Chorus / Verse Break

The police, had a lot of questions
You see, they had to tie this up real neat
Now the motive was clear, but they had no weapons
And they figured shed crack under the heat

Repeat Chorus

They were wrong, they were wrong

You say your man left you, tell you what you do
Baby, go find, somebody new

In the bars or the churches, any place will do
Baby, go find, somebody new

Chorus
Forget about forgiveness, forget about revenge
Theres only one way to make your heartache end
Put on a little make-up, and your high-heel shoes
Baby, go find, somebody new

Break

Dont let him see you hurtin, all alone and blue

Baby, go find, somebody new

And if he comes back beggin, another chance with you

You can tell him you found, somebody new

Repeat Chorus

Baby, go find, somebody new

If it’s not love I don’t mind
This is good enough for me
It’s better than I ever though it could be
No strings to tie us down
Need to share what you just find
If it’s not love I don’t mind
We don’t talk about the weather or somewhere down the line
Our plans don’t go beyond a week or two
But we know we’ve got today
And we dare not ask for more
All we need tonight is me holding you
If it’s not love I don’t mind
This is good enough for me
It’s better than I ever though it could be
No strings to tie us down
Need to share what you just find
If it’s not love I don’t mind

Solo

Just hold me close at dark
Let’s open up our heart
Cause the way I feel little angel
I don’t ever want to part
If it’s not love I don’t mind
This is good enough for me
It’s better than I ever though love could be
No strings to tie us down
Need to share what you just find
If it’s not love I don’t mind
If it’s not love I don’t mind

Capo 5

Eight more miles and I’ll be home
Back in your grace where I belong
Tonight I’m be sleepin’ in my own bed
With my blue tilt feather pillow underneath my head

Chorus 1:
I feel the wheels on 65
I don’t when I felt so alive
Eight more miles, eight more miles
And I’ll be home

Since I’ve been gone everythings changed
Theres been two weeks of steady rain
Now the dogwoods bloomed painted white
And that damp smell of new cut grass is everywhere tonight

Chorus 2:
Sweet sunny south I never knew
Just how much I could miss you
Eight more miles, eight more miles
And I’ll be home

I crossed the Rockies on a silver train
I walked through Bergen In the pouring rain
I’ve met with strangers I came to love
And I’ve gotten drunk with Chieftains in a Dublin hotel pub

Chorus 3:
And I dearely love these memories
All that matter now to me
Is eight more miles, eight more miles
And I’ll be home

Tag:

Eight more miles, eight more miles and I’ll be home
