Verse 1:
D A
She left 3 months after graduation
Bm 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
Bm G
Doing anything to keep her mine,
D A G
Putting all my hard-earned dough in a diamond ring.
Bm A
I was wide-eyed, young, in love,
Bm A G
Heading to her college in my pickup truck,
Bm 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
Bm 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,
Bm 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,
Bm 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,
Bm 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,
Bm G
E 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
Bm 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,
Bm 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 Bm G
Bridge:
Em
Now that brown-eyed girl is riding shotgun,
G
We've got a sunset and a fifth of rum.
Em
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
Bm 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,
Bm 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.
