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