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