Verse 1:
G+G D MajorD
Off work at ten
E minorEm C9C9
Then off to a friends
G+G D MajorD E minorEm C9C9
Any thing to keep from going home
G+G D MajorD
I've seen these streets my whole damn life
E minorEm C9C9
Barely made it out alive
G+G D MajorD E minorEm C9C9
Push the car to eighty on the backroads
G+G D MajorD
Stop by Willy's on a Monday night
E minorEm C9C9
Always leave flying high as a kite
G+G D MajorD E minorEm C9C9
And try to drive the way that the cops don't go
G+G D MajorD
Liza hits me up real late at night
E minorEm C9C9
When we dated all we did was fight
G+G D MajorD
I guess she's feeling lonely
E minorEm C9C9
And she wants me to know
Chorus:
G+G D MajorD E minorEm C9C9
I wish someone told it'd be like this
G+G D MajorD E minorEm C9C9
But no one could've told me it'd be like this
G+G
When I was a boy
D MajorD
I worried bout chores
E minorEm C9C9
And tying my shoes tight
G+G
To show up on time
D MajorD
Try not to wine
E minorEm C9C9
And get all my prayers right
G+G
Now I'm always stressed out
D MajorD
Running round'
Looking for another town
E minorEm C9C9
To saddle up and settle down
G+G D MajorD E minorEm C9C9
Lone
G+G D MajorD E minorEm C9C9
Lone
Verse 2:

I really miss my pops
E minorEm C9C9
He used to be as strong as fort Knox
G+G D MajorD E minorEm C9C9
Had arms of steel and a heart of gold
G+G D MajorD
We took a drive up to lone pine
E minorEm C9C9
That man could give some damn good advice

He knew me better than whiskey knows ice

And he told me so

Bridge:
E minorEm C9C9
I watched the stars collide
I saw an old love die
C/GC/G
While new loves burn

And the river run dry

The river run dry
