N.C. D
Oh, you poor, broke, mixed up mess of a heart
A E
You let a little bitty woman go and tear you all a part
A
I warned you a thousand times
D
But, you wouldn't listen, paid me no mind
A E A
You poor, broke, mixed up mess of a heart
A
I watched her buy his ticket
D
In Charlotte, North Carolina
A E
I heard her say, "One way, please, to Denver"
A
She's gone to meet that other guy
D
It won't do us no good to cry
A E A
'Cause she's wearin' his ring on her finger
A
I watched her tip the porter
D
As she stepped aboard that midnight train
A E
Bound to take her far away for ever
A
I watched the taillight fade away
D
Knowin' she was gone to stay
A E A
I wish this broken heart was leavin' with her
