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