Intro: G   C   G   C   G   G   D  

G                               C  
Something about the way you told me  
   G                        C  
reminded me of a different story  
  G                                                 D  
about the last good one that got away.  
G                           C 
She got upset and grabbed a knife,  
G                   C 
forcing me to step outside  
    G                                                 D  
of everything I had known before today.  
                   C                                      G                        D  
Why does it always end up, no matter what you get, its not enough?  

G                   C

G                                 C

       Am 
You can't get out the stains if the blood comes from your veins. 
G                         C 
Same prayer in a different church,  
G                             C 
same old wound cuz it still hurts.  
    Am                                                                   G  (C   G) 
If everything has changed, then why do I feel the same? 

G                    C 
I grew up and left the town. 
  G                               C 
I left that scene buried underground  
       G                                                       D  
and became the man I always thought I'd be….  
G                     C 
Playing on the tallest stages, 
      G                          C 
the wine, the women, and the wages…  
      G                                      D  
But even with all of that I was lonely. 
                   C                                       G                        D

G                     C 
A rainy day outside of Memphis.  
   G                        C  
A hangover and a shady witness.  
       G                                              D 
The Delta Blues were singing to the Lord.  
           G                     C 
I said, "Jesus, can you rescue me?  
      G                                     C 
I've had too much wine and I cannot see…  
  G                                                   D 
I really hope that you ain't keeping score…"
