[Intro 1]
[Am][C][Am][C][Am][C][Am][C][Am]

[Verse 1]
As her car pulls out [Am]the driveway
[Dm]
And she don't wave goodbye
[F]Her[Esus4] last words echo[E]
[Am]in m[Dm]y mind[F]
Listen [E]honey, I gotta get [Am]away[C]

[Verse 2]
[Am]I'm standing here watching
her tail [Dm]lights
As if they're some kind [F]of sign[Esus4]
[E]Fading into a [Am]memory[Dm][F]
I just got tired of try[Esus4]ing[E]

[Verse 3]
[Am]So l[C]ong, I h[Dm]ate to see you g[Am]o
So I [F]save my tears for [Dm]later on
down [Am]the road[G][Am]
How [C]come I [Dm]keep I holding [Am]on
[F]Knowing you [E]won't be coming

[Interlude 1]
home
[Am][C][Am][C][Am][C][Am]

[Verse 4]
Two days later I get [Am]a letter[Dm]
A picture of a room in some
[F]hotel[Esus4]
Sitting [E]framed up on [Am]the table,[Dm][F]
A [E]picture I know so [Am]well
You've painted yourself
into [Dm]a corner
Now you're trying to paint
something [F]new[Esus4]
And your [E]lipstick on the [Am]letter[Dm][F]
Is a goodbye kiss [Esus4]from you[E]

[Verse 5]
[Am]So long,[C] I hate [Dm]to see you g[Am]o
So I [F]save my tears for [Dm]later
on down [Am]the road
How [C]come I [Dm]keep I holding [Am]on
[F]Knowing you [E]won't be coming home
[Am]

[Verse 6]
[G]
I still set the [Dm]table[F]
Still set it for you and [C]me[G]
It's become [Dm]a habit
[F]My own personal make be [Esus4]lieve

[F]Knowing you won't be
coming [Esus4]home[E]
