Intro: C Am F G
C Am F
She was crying out my name, Standing in the driveway
Little bare feet wearing her cotton dress and I
C Am F
I still see the rain chasing tears down her face
It was back in October when I said it’s over and hid
Am G F
Behind the door, behind the shame of my conviction
Am G F
Bedside myself ,beside some empty pill prescription
Can hear her screamig’ no
C G
No baby don’t, you making my heart hurt
Am
Don’t say those words
F G
Take it back, you know you don’t mean that
C G
You swore when I wore your ring
It meant forever
Am G F
I’ve got it on baby, how can you say I lost it
Oh, you promised
C Am F
Started crying while I was sleeping, waking up and reaching out
To a bed as empty as the heart inside my chest
C Am F
So I gathered up some pictures, i said i had somethin to give her
I let her read a letter, i had a written her to give her
on the day we tied the knot
Am G
I saw the tears
F
I saw them fall as she read the part of my growing old

I heard her words, i heard her say it’ll never work
And hit my knees and cried
