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