[Verse 1]
She said,
      Dsus2                      G         Dsus2
"It's none of my business but it breaks my heart"
          G6/B                    G         Dsus2
Dropped a dozen cheap roses in my shopping cart
                                 G          Dsus2
Made it out to the truck without breaking down
   G6/B                  G         Dsus2
Everybody knows you in a speed trap     town

[Verse 2]
            Dsus2                        G           Dsus2
Well it's a Thursday night but there's a high school game
        G6/B                           G     Dsus2
Sneak a bottle up the bleachers and forget my     name
                        G       Dsus2
These 5A bastards run a shallow cross
        G6/B                       G      Dsus2
It's a boy's last dream and a man's first loss

[Chorus 1]
       Em7         G              Dsus2        A  Asus4
And it never did occur to me to leave 'til tonight
A           Em7               G         Dsus2
And there's no one left to ask if I'm alright
     Em7             G                     Dsus2        A Asus4
I'll sleep until I'm straight enough to drive, then decide
A          Em7             G               Dsus2
If there's anything that can't be left behind

[Verse 3]
    Dsus2                      G           Dsus2
The doctor said Daddy wouldn't make it a year
        G6/B                      G      Dsus2
But the holidays are over and he's still here
                                  G   Dsus2
How long can they keep you in the ICU?
  G6/B                        G        Dsus2
Veins through the skin like a faded tattoo

[Verse 4]
      Dsus2                      G          Dsus2
Was a tough state trooper 'til a decade back
              G6/B                           G
When that girl    who wasn't Mama caused his heart attack
Dsus2                                    G          Dsus2
     He didn't care about us when he was walking around
     G6/B                    G         Dsus2
Just pulling women over in a speed trap     town

[Chorus]
       Em7            G           Dsus2        A  Asus4
But it never did occur to me to leave 'til tonight
A      Em7              G             Dsus2 Dsus4 Dsus2
When I realized he'll never be alright
Em7              G
Sign my name and say my last goodbye,
Dsus2           A Asus4
     then decide
A            Em7                    G              Dsus2
That there's nothing here that can't be left behind

[Solo]
                                      | Cadd9 -     |
| G6/B  Dsus2 | - -     | -     Cadd9 | -     G6/B  |
| Dsus2 -     | - -     | Cadd9 -     | G6/B  Dsus2 |
| -     -     | - Cadd9 | -     G6/B  | Dsus2 -     |
| -     -     |

[Outro]
    Dsus2                    G       Dsus2
The road got blurry when the sun came     up
     G6/B                        G           Dsus2
So I slept a couple hours in the pickup truck
                            G        Dsus2
Drank a cup of coffee by an Indian mound
  G6/B                          G         Dsus2
A thousand miles away from that speed trap     town
      G6/B                      G         Dsus2
A thousand miles away from that speed trap     town
