E B G#m F# E
[Verse]
E B
Went out the door, into the morning darkness
G#m F# E
gravel underfoot, heard the screen door gently close
B
I slid across the seat, the steering wheel was cold
G#m F# E
tiny icicles on the glass in the corner of the windows
B
The desert air was dry, they were melted in the instant
G#m F# E
I pulled on to the highway, and I began to cry
B
I was leaving her behind, it was really for the best
G#m F# E
I had something deep inside, boundless anger without reason
[Chorus]
E B
Yeah, we all got someone we left behind
F# G#m
'cause we're just weren’t right in our hearts and our minds
E B F#
Yeah, we all got someone we were lucky to find in the first place
E B
Yeah, we all got someone we never treated right
F# G#m
We were selfish and drinking, staying out all night
E B F# B
Yeah, we all got someone we were lucky to find in the first place
[Verse]
E B
When she awakes, I hope that she's not sad
G#m F# E
I loved her from the first time I laid my eyes upon her
B
We got a little house, drove a truck, played in a band
G#m F# E
got some Mexican chickens, and we raised them on our land
B
Talked of having little girls, they’d have their mother's little curls
G#m F# E
it was more than a dream, yeah, one day they'd be real
B
I played out on the road, at first she came along,
G# F#m E
sang the harmonies, mixed the sound, sold the albums and the singles
B
I hung out in the bar, drinking until the closing time
G#m F# E
I was foolish, I was selfish, I'd find her sleeping in the car
[Chorus]
E B
Yeah we all got someone we left behind
F# G#m
'cause we're just weren’t right in our hearts and our minds
E B F#
Yeah we all got someone we were lucky to find in the first place
E B
Yeah we all got someone we never treated right
F# G#m
We were selfish and drinking, staying out all night
E B F# B
Yeah we all got someone we were lucky to find in the first place
[Verse]
E B
She went back to our house, to feed and raise the animals
G#m F# E
we slowly grew apart, as I was growing meaner
B
I drank when I got up, cause the motel room was hot
G#m F# E
or something stupid I had done, I was lonely for my girl
B
there was always someone else and then there was another
G#m F# E
I could barely stand myself, I was stoned all the time
B
when I finally came back home, she said something changed inside you
G#m F# E
I smashed a glass against the wall, went walking in the desert
B
When I come on back, she was sleeping peacefully
G#m F# E
I knew that she was better, better off without me
B
The little girls were there, I saw their faces in her hair
G#m F# E
but now it was clear, I would never be their father
B
Put on my coat and hat, slid the deadbolt in the hasp
G#m F# E
took one last look back at her, I stepped across the threshold.
