♫ Verse:
D        Bm
This bar used to be ours
G                         D
Now I'm walking in like a stranger
D          Bm
My friends askin' how I been
G                                       D
Hell, I guess it is six or eight months later

              Bm    A     G
And somehow I ain't moved on
            Bm   A    G
Even though I've been gone
D                                      A
And that damn Tulsa sky still 'bout as blue as her eyes
              Bm   A   G
Can't look at that too long

D                                 A
Never thought I'd see the day the one that got away
G                         A
Could turn back home into just some place
D                  A
Up until now never understood how
G                                       A
They could call them stomping grounds a flyover state
Bm                     A
She's the reason why I know what it's like
G                                 D
To find the love of your life and lose her
Em
And why I haven't been back
A           D

D       Bm
Chasing dreams and the wind
G                         D
Anything to keep me miles away
D           Bm
If I can be like an ol' tumbleweed
G                                     D
I'll never have to look back to where I've been
          Bm    A     G
Somehow I ain't moved on
            Bm   A    G
Even though I've been gone

D
If mama gets to missin'
A
I'll buy her the ticket
           Bm            A             G
'Cause I'm staying where my heartbreak isn't

D                                 A
Never thought I'd see the day the one that got away
G                         A
Could turn back home into just some place
D                  A
Up until now never understood how
G                                       A
They could call them stomping grounds a flyover state
Bm                     A
She's the reason why I know what it's like
G                                 D

G
I know how Oklahoma works
A                                  G
Red dirt roots are supposed to run deep
Bm                   A            G
These days if anyone asks me, I'm from Tennessee

D                                 A
Never thought I'd see the day the one that got away
G                         A
Could turn back home into just some place
D                  A

Em
That's why I can't get past
A
A couple lines on the map
Em
And why I haven't been back
A           D
