Hammer+A(Slide)

Here we are, what is left of a husband and a wife

With four good kids who have a way of gettin' on with their life.

And I'm not old but I'm gettin' a whole lot older everyday.

Walk

It's too late to keep from goin' crazy, I've got to get away.

Chorus

The reasons that I can't stay don't have a thing to do with being in love

And I understand that lovin' a man shouldn't have to be this rough

But you ain't the only one who feels like this world left you far behind

I don't know why you gotta be angry all the time.

The boys are strong now, a spittin' image of you when you were young.

I hope someday they can see past what you have become.

And I remember everytime I said I'd never leave

Walk

But what I can't live with is memories of the way you used to be.

REPEAT CHORUS

BREAK = 2X

Twenty years have came and went since I walked out of your door.

I never quite made it back to the one I was before.

And God it hurts me to think of you for the light in your eyes was gone.

Walk

And sometimes I don't know why this old world can't leave well enough alone.

REPEAT CHORUS
