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