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