Standard (EADGBE)

These hony-tonks and bright city lights used to thrill me.

I'd paint the yown and stumble in at dawn.

But now there's no one listning for my footsteps.

And it's why I've been down to one more night alone.

Chorus

I thought I had her wrapped around my fingers.

I didn't think this wish would ever Burn.

I'd always thought she'd take me back.

But she taught me the cold hard facts.

When it comes to love, Ive got a lot to learn.

It never crossed my mind that she might leave me.

She did her best to love me till the end.

If she were here I know I'd treat her better.

But I won't ever get that chance again.
