C   Am G/B C C/E F

Verse 1:
          Am       G/B             C        G   F
I got a picture of you holdin' a picture of her taped to the dash of my car
   Am           G/B     C        G     F
I see it every time I check my speed or run it to the grocery store
    Am     G/B            C    G     F
The two of you were the only thing in life worth fightin' for
      Am               G/B      C          G     F
But since you've been gone a I ain't been much for fightin' anymore

Chorus:
   Am         G               C
These days things don't come easy
      Am                           G                   F
It's all I can do at most just to keep it between the lines
    Am                G              F
If I'd have done a better job of listenin'
G                         C
  Baby you would still be mine


Verse 2:
Am       G/B    C       G            F
I ain't had a drop to drink since the day that you left me
 Am       G/B      C     G          F
Six years come September I've been cursed with this clarity
Am       G/B             C           G      F
I stare in the mirror yellin' at a stranger lookin' back on me
         Am          G/B      C     G       F
And the ghost of the man I could've been still haunts all my dreams


Chorus:
   Am         G               C
These days things don't come easy
               Am                           G           F
It's all I can do at most just to keep it between the lines
  Am                  G              F
If I'd have done a better job of listenin'
G                           C  G/B Am G F
  Maybe you would still be mine


Verse 3:
Am                                          F
Foolish pride wouldn't let me give you the keys to the Oldsmobile
Am                                               F
No way in hell I should've let myself ever get behind that wheel
Am                                               F
I was drunk, it was dark, and I didn't see him comin' over that hill
Am
I regretted it then, I regret it now, I guess I always will


Chorus:
   Am         G               C
These days things don't come easy
               Am                   G                   F
It's all I can do at most just to keep it between the lines
Am                   G              F
If I'd have done a better job of listenin'
G                                    C   G/B Am G F   Am G F C/E Dm
  The two of you you would still be mine

I got a picture of you holdin' a picture of her taped to the dash of my car
