[Verse 1]
G
I said the night you left me
C G
Nothin’ worse could ever happen,
C G
But seeing you with someone else
D
Proved that I was wrong.
C
And when your eyes met mine, I knew
G C
That you were gone forever,
G D G
Along with all the reasons I had for hanging on
[Chorus]
C
I’d be better off in a pine box
G
On a slow train back to Georgia,
D C
Or in the grey walls of a prison doing time.
D G C
I think I’d rather die and go to hell and face the devil,
G C D G
Than to lie here with you and him together on my mind.
[Verse 2]
G C G
I always thought that someday, we might get back together.
C G
I just thought you needed time
D
To spread your wings and fly,
C G C
But when I saw the loving way you held onto each other,
G D G
It was all that I could do, not to break right down and cry
Repeat Chorus 2x’s
C G D G
I can't lie here with you and him together on my mind
