Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]She went back to Wichita
She went back to her ma and pa
[G]Reckon I saw her next to my truck
Pumping gas [C]with the car packed up

[Verse 2]
[C]We talked as neighbors will
There waiting for the tanks to fill
[Dsus4]We talked [G]about nothing

[Verse 3]
How it might snow, how far she had to go
[C]Go [F]ing back where [Dm]the grass
grows [G]tall
[Am]And the fields [C]burn in [F]the fall
You can still hear [Dm]the night
bird[F]s call[G]
[F]Bac[C]k in Wichita

[Verse 4]
[C]She came in '85
She came here as a July bride
But it never [G]got easy, never got rich
Ain't got much but what she came
[C]here with

[Verse 5]
Good times have all been [C]spent
She ain't broken,
but she's badly bent
There's [G]nothing she wants
here, nothing that shines
She's made [F]up her [C]mind
Going [F]back

[Verse 6]
where the [Dm]grass [G]grows tall
And the [Am]fields [C]burn in [F]the fall
You can still hear the [Dm]night birds [G]call
[F]Back in [C]Wichita

[Verse 7]
"For all my time,
[Dm]well, I [F]ain't got much [C]to show
[G]You can tell that man of mine and
[F]anyone who [G]wants to know"
Going [F]back

[Verse 8]
where the [Dm]grass grows [G]tall
And the [Am]fields [C]burn in [F]the fall
You can still hear the [Dm]night [F]birds [G]call
[F]Back in [C]Wichita
Going [F]back

[Verse 9]
where the grass
[G]grows [Dm]tall[G]
And the [Am]fields [C]burn in [F]the fall
You can still hear [Dm]the night birds[F] c[G]all
[F]Back in [C]Wichita
