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