Intro
G#
Verse 1:
G# D#
She left 3 months after graduation
Fm C#
For Valdosta and a higher education.
G# D# C#
I stayed behind, took a job out there feeding grain.
G# D#
It was late night phone calls, working overtime
Fm C#
Doing anything to keep her mine,
G# D# C#
Putting all my hard-earned dough in a diamond ring.
Fm D#
I was wide-eyed, young, in love,
Fm D# C#
Heading to her college in my pickup truck,
Fm D#
But when I arrived, to my surprise,
C# C#
She was on the couch all whiskey-eyed, kissing on some other guy.
Chorus:
G# D#
There comes a time when you get taught a lesson
Fm C#
Making it clear you've got a lot to learn
G# D# C#
About love, life, and women.
G# D#
Well I learned mine out on Brookwood Drive,
Fm C#
Things ain't what they seem sometimes,
G# D# C#
And heartache is just a part of living.
D# C#
Yeah I know a good education will cost you,
G#
But I got mine for free, in Valdosta.
Verse 2:
G# D#
I didn't hang around for an explanation,
Fm C#
I laid out without hesitation
G# D# C#
Right after I spit my dip in his eye.
G# D#
But if it wasn't for her promiscuous ways,
Fm C#
I'd have never stopped at that cafe
G# D# C#
Where a sweet little brown-eyed girl asked me what I'd like.
G# D#
I said, "How 'bout a love that lasts,
Fm C#
A# girl who's looking for an honest man?"
G# D#
She said, "I know how it feels
C# C#
When you're out there spinning your wheels, tryna find something real.
Chorus:
G# D#
There comes a time when you get taught a lesson
Fm C#
Making it clear you've got a lot to learn
G# D# C#
About love, life, and women.
G# D#
Yeah I learned mine out on Brookwood Drive,
Fm C#
Things ain't what they seem sometimes,
G# D# C#
And heartache is just a part of living.
D# C#
Well I know a good education will cost you,
G#
But I got mine for free, in Valdosta.
G# D# Fm C#
Bridge:
A#m
Now that brown-eyed girl is riding shotgun,
C#
We've got a sunset and a fifth of rum.
A#m
And in my own way, I'm thankful now
D#
for that little South Georgia college town.
Chorus:
G# D#
There comes a time when you get taught a lesson
Fm C#
Making it clear you've got a lot to learn
G# D# C#
About love, life, and women.
G# D#
Hey I learned mine out on Brookwood Drive,
Fm C#
Things ain't what they seem sometimes,
G# D# C#
And heartache is just a part of living.
G# D# C#
Yeah, I said a heartache is just a part of living.
D#
I know a good education will cost you,
C# G# D# C#
But I got mine for free, in Valdosta.
G# D# C#
Way down in Valdosta.
G#
Ooohhh.
