[Intro]
A
She got her last cheque, took the apron off her neck
A
Hung it up, grabbed her stuff
A
Headed out to the truck
D G D A
She finally had enough
[Verse 1]
A
She took a black top down to the truck stop
A
Bought a map, ball cap, bag of Fritos in her lap
D G D A
Push had come to shove
[Chorus]
Em G D A
Oooo she finally understood
Em G D A
Oooo you gotta get while the getting’s good
[Verse 2]
A
On the very same day, couple hundred miles away
A
Guy gets a mixed text from the crazy psycho ex
D G D A
She said I’m coming back
A
(Oh lord have mercy)
[Verse 3]
A
Grabbed his boots, grabbed his socks
A
Wishing he had changed the locks
A
Running through the neighbours yard
A
Hits the sprinkler goes down hard
D G D A
Praying he gets out of line
[Chorus]
Em G D A
Oooo I guess he understood
Em G D A
Oooo you gotta get while the getting’s good
[Lead]
A Em G D A
[Bridge]
A
When you feel those four walls, start to getting too small
A
Cash it in, roll it in, make like the prairie wind
[Chorus]
Em G D A
Oooo I guess they understood
Em G D A
Oooo you gotta get while the getting’s good
Em G D A
Oooo I guess they understood
Em G D A
Oooo you gotta get while the getting’s good
