BbBbsus4 I'd like to stay but I might have to go to start over again BbF Might go back down to Texas, might go to somewhere that Ive never been Bb And get up in the mornin' and go out at night Bbus4 And I won't have to go home Bb Get used to bein' alone F Change the words to this song BbBbsus4BbF Start singin' again
