Verse 1: Repeat intro throughout the verse

I don’t wanna talk about why this aint workin
Go around where we’ve already been
Run through the list of all your reasons
You can save that drama for your friends

Chorus

I don’t wanna be let down easy
If all you’re gonna do is bring me down
Cmon baby just break my heart right now
If you’re gone, If you’re gone
Just get goin

Verse 2

It’s not a complicated situation
There aint no need to over analyze
Spare me the graphic explanation
Cause baby its to late and just to damn tired

Chorus
I don’t wanna be let down easy
If all you’re gonna do is bring me down
Cmon baby just break my heart right now
If you’re gone, If you’re gone
Just get goin

Solo

And I don’t wanna be let down easy
If all you’re gonna do is bring me down
Cmon baby just break my heart right now
If you’re gone, If you’re gone
Just get goin

Verse 1:
If I gave you up for gone, q[D/F#]uit all this holding on
would I wake up tomorrow feeling better
What if hopes the only thing kee[D/F#]ping me from crumbling
the last thread holdin’ the pieces together
And it’s hard to tell t[D/F#]he one that i’ll regret
just letting you know that I’m not giving up yet

Chorus:
I want to run out to [D/F#]the edge of town
scream your name for hours out loud
Turn this worl[D/F#]d upside down to find you
I want to build mysel[D/F#]f a time machine
go back and change everything to see you here with me
That’s was the closest I’d ever been to who I’d wanna be

Verse 2:
Such an ordinary day, you know[D/F#] the one you went away
I’ve relived ea[D/F#]ch minute a million times
And all the things I almost did [D/F#]then didn’t do instead
keep running around [D/F#]in circles in my mind
This heavy hea[D/F#]rt just won’t let me rest
till I’ve convin[D/F#]ced myself that I tried my best

(Chorus)… G

Bridge:
And I wonde[D/F#]r where could you be
I wonder why[D/F#], did you leave without me….

(Chorus)
….[D/F#]………..……….to who i’d wanna be
….[D/F#]………..……….to who i’d wanna be

Still young and a rambling livin’ life and gambling on a journey, to far to see the end. Well
how long will it take me, Lord don’t let it break me right now, sure could use a friend. yeah

well I’m goin in.

Twenty-four days and Twenty-four nights is all we got, to make it all our own. Make something
outta what might have been, make dreams come alive, and see the light thought a cloud of somke.
Well how high can we dream and how far can we go, till we reach the end of our road. Will you
catch me when I get there, will you push me if I slow down this long, long winding road.

G C Em D G C Em D (repeats till end of song)
Ohhh and it’s to far….. to travel all alone.

Way down at the bottom of the river
There’s a locket with a picture of me
She drowned what I thought was forever
She locked up our love and lost the key
A friend of mine heard from a friend of hers
She was workin’ on last name number three
There was a time I’d have relished those words
But I’m not where I used to be

Way down
Weighted down at the bottom
I almost drown in a shallow dream
A light shined down and life was waiting at the top when
I let go of the past that was draggin me

Way down an Oklahoma highway
There’s a cafe where they’ll remember me
I broke down by a payphone in the hallway
Put my fist through a drywall sheet
I hit a wall trying to find some kinda way
To find some peace
Buried it all when I dug a grave for all the
Pain that was pulling me

Way down
Weighted down at the bottom
I almost drown in a shallow dream
A light shined down and life was waiting at the top when
I let go of the past that was dragging me

Way down
Way down
Way down, way down, way down, way down

Chorus:
How ‘bout one more dance, a second chance
To ease my mind, girl it won’t take long
Come on and take my hand, a little romance
How ‘bout a love song

I got a radio, I got a TV, I don’t turn ‘em on
All my riches don;’t mean a thing till you’re back in my arms
Learned my lesson, paid my dues and I even tried to settle down
Yeah I swear this time I’m gonna live for you and be the one to make your world spin around

Chorus

Solo

Chorus

Verse
Sometimes I lie awake at night and I cant close my eyes. Thinking about you.
Times like this I realize that I cant help myself, Im crazy about you.
Aint it funny how life finds a way somehow to bring two things together. Its bittersweet.
How the Lord sought out an angle to open up my eyes, and knock me off my feet.

Chorus
When Im standing on that stage with those lights in my face. I think of you and my lips turn to
C G,C C,D
a smile itd take a lifetime to erase.

Verse
Hate to see you leave, you seem so far away. Well I still feel you.
Make a call on my telephone to hear about your day. To say I miss you.
Every time the wind blows well I can feel you touch. It gets me though another day.
With a long stretch of highway combined with a lack of time. But our love will never fade.

Chorus 2X

Verse
For so long I headed down this highway. Not knowing where I’m headed for. Pray to God to give me
some direction, lead you back to the footsteps of my door.
Chorus
Maybe I can’t see clearly, maybe I don’t know who I am. wanna feel the way I used to. Only you,
G (stop)…… D
Only you
Verse
Some say seasons change with the weather…..so do ambitions, ways, and goals. Wonder if your
mind’s still searching. Well it’s so hard to see the sunlight when you’re stuck down in this
hole.

Chorus
Oh no… Maybe I can’t see clearly, as I did before, and maby be I don’t konw who I am, why
can’t I find myself. And I wanna feel the way I use to, when the sun lights up your face, only
you can take me from this place.

Only you, only you, only you………. only you, only you, only you.
yeah e yeah only you…..
ONly you, only you, only you
Hold on, hold on, Hold on…..

Can you hear the words I?m singin, can you feel, feel the sounds I?m playin, oh, oh can
you feel the sounds I?m playin.

Verse
Three verses to keep your head from falling apart, cause you know sometimes life will
get you down, but God will always deal you a lucky card. So won?t you follow all your
instincts. Someone?s always by your side, cause there are angles all among us to cushion
your soul on this bumpy ride.

Chorus
Verse
Three Verses a song in remembrance of me, well I didn?t join the army, but I tried to be
the best that I could be. Those of you who doubted, I did my best to prove you wrong.
Now I leave for you the lyrics of three verses, and the memory of my song, the memory
of my song.

Label said hero
I graduated zero
I was doing what I could to get by
Jody was a looker a high school hooker
She loved to make the big boys cry
My time is still standing seems never ending
got a loaded pistol by my side
Dirty brass polls lines up her nose
I always knew she would be a black dress bride

Chorus #1:
Ought to be crazy, I’m too damn lazy
To sit around thinking of you
I should have somehow realized by now
I’m doing something I shouldn’t do
I’m hurting so strung out still missing you

Guitar 2: Intro Riff

Laid out before me
She said she adored me
And she told me that she liked to get high

Talking about a big deal
Devil in high heels
She took me for a one way ride

How did it come to this
Power of a woman’s kiss
Put me in a grave close by

Dealt a bad hand
I know I should have ran
I guess it probably could have saved my life

Chorus #2:
Ought to be crazy I’m too damn lazy
To sit around thinking of you
I should have somehow realized by now
I’m doing something I shouldn’t do
I’m going straight out of my head still missing you

I’m still missing you

So here?s to you, and here?s to me. Best of friends that we?ll always be

Verse
Mr. Bartender pour me a shot once more, to drive my cares and fears away. Well I?m down to my
last cigarette and it?s broken. Oh well guess I didn?t need the damn thing anyway. She just
walked by my table and she gave me a second glance. My eyes followed her to the backroom door.
Now she?s talking to another man, I guess I just lost my chance. Hey bartender I?ll have two
more.
