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