[Verse 1]
E Asus E
She said "it's none of my business but it breaks my heart"
C# B11 E
Dropped a dozen cheap roses in my shopping cart
E Asus E
Made it out to the truck without breaking down
C# B11 E
Everybody knows you're in a speed trap town
E Asus E
It's a Thursday night but there's a high school game
C# B11 E
Sneak a bottle up the bleachers and forget my name
E Asus E
These 5-A bastards run a shallow cross
C# B11 E
It's a boy's last dream and a man's first loss
[Chorus 1]
F#m Asus E B
And it never did occur to me to leave, 'til tonight
F#m Asus E
There's no one left to ask if I'm all right
F#m Asus E B
Sleep until I'm straight enough to drive, then decide
F#m Asus E
If there's anything that can't be left behind
[Verse 2]
E Asus E
The doctor said daddy wouldn't make it a year
C# B11 E
But the holidays are over and he's still here
E Asus E
How long can they keep you in the ICU
C# B11 E
Veins through the skin like a faded tattoo
E Asus E
Was a tough state trooper from a decade back
C# B11 E
Till that girl who wasn't mama caused his heart attack
E Asus E
He didn't care about us when he was walkin' around
C# B11 E
Just pulling women over in a speed trap town
[Chorus 2]
F#m Asus E B
But it never did occur to me to leave, 'til tonight
F#m Asus E
When I realized he'll never be all right
F#m Asus E B
Sign my name and say my last goodbye, then decide
F#m Asus E
That there's nothing here that can't be left behind
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
E Asus E
Roads got blurry when the sun came up
C# Asus E
Slept a couple hours in the pickup truck
E Asus E
Drank a cup of coffee by an Indian mound
C# B11 E
Thousand miles away from that speed trap town
C# B11 E
Thousand miles away from that speed trap town
