[Intro]
G Asus Bm Asus G Asus Bm Asus
G Asus Bm Asus
Floor board is filled with baby toys
G Asus Bm Asus
and empty coke bottles and coffee cups
G Asus Bm Asus
Driving through the rain with no radio
G Asus Bm Asus
try not to wake her up
G Asus Bm Asus
Cell phone says low battery
G Asus Bm Asus
God what if I break down
G Asus Bm Asus
I'm just looking for an exit with lots of light
G Asus Bm
in a safe little interstate town
[Chorus]
D
Just a cheap hotel
C
with a single bed
Bm F#m G
and cable TV
A (repeat Intro)
is good enough for me and Emily
G Asus Bm Asus
Someday when she?s old enough
G Asus Bm Asus
she's going to start asking questions about him
G Asus Bm Asus
some kid at school brings his dad for show and tell
G Asus Bm Asus
gets her little mind wondering
G Asus Bm Asus
where?s my daddy do I have one
G Asus Bm Asus
does he not love me like you do
G Asus Bm Asus
Maybe I'll find someone to love the both of us now
G Asus Bm
tell her when she's old enough to know the truth
[Chorus 2]
D
Will it break her heart
C
will she understand
Bm F#m G
that I had to leave
A D
That's what was best for me and Emily
[Bridge]
Am7
The house was never clean enough
G
his dinner never warm enough
Bm A G A
Nothing I did was ever good enough to make him happy
D Am7 G
So I guess he gave me what he thought I deserved
Bm A G
but it would kill me if he ever raise his hand to her
G Asus Bm Asus
Big rigs are throwing rain on my windshield now
G Asus Bm Asus
Seems like they're laughing at me
G Asus Bm Asus
Maybe the storm is letting up
G Asus Badd9
and the morning is breaking free
[Chorus 3]
D
It?s a brand new day
C
It's as second chance
Bm F#m G
yesterday is just a memory
A G Asus Bm Asus G Asus Bm
For Me and Emily
G Asus Bm Asus
Floor board is filled with baby toys
G Asus Bm Asus
and empty coke bottles and coffee cups
G Asus Bm Asus
At least there?s one good thing that he gave me
G A D
and she's starting to wake up
