[Verse]
C G
Went out the door, into the morning darkness
Em D C
gravel underfoot, heard the screen door gently close
G
I slid across the seat, the steering wheel was cold
Em 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
Em 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
Em D C
I had something deep inside, boundless anger without reason
[Chorus]
C G
Yeah, we all got someone we left behind
D Em
'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 Em
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
Em 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
Em 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
Em 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,
E Dm 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
Em 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 Em
'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 Em
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
Em D C
we slowly grew apart, as I was growing meaner
G
I drank when I got up, cause the motel room was hot
Em 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
Em 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
Em D C
I smashed a glass against the wall, went walking in the desert
G
When I come on back, she was sleeping peacefully
Em 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
Em 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
Em D C
took one last look back at her, I stepped across the threshold.
