Bb C Bb C Bb C It's two A.M. in my new home this motel room Bb An ash tray full of lucky strikes C A half spent case of warm Bud Lite Dm Bb Counting regrest...fighting back tears Am Bb Retracin' steps...gettin' nowhere Dm Bb Callin' your name it's a waste of my breath F C/E Dm C There's no reachin' you across this cold and empty bed Bb Dm Stirrin' up ash's, tryin' to find passion C Bb Where there's no love left Dm C Bb It's like tryin to put smoke back in this cigarette Bb C Come sunrise guess I'll check out and ditch this town Bb Put a few more miles between us C And keep drivin' till I finally mend this broken trust Dm Bb Hangin' my hopes on highway signs Am Bb If I lie here I'll lose my mind Dm Bb Callin' your name it's a waste of my breath F C/E Dm C There's no reachin' you across this cold and empty bed Bb Dm Stirrin' up ash's, tryin' to find passion C Bb Where there's no love left Dm C Bb C It's like tryin to put smoke back in this cigarette Bb I may never know your reasons why Dm Eb But someday I'm gonna see the good in your goodbye Dm Bb Callin' your name it's a waste of my breath F C/E Dm C There's no reachin' you across this cold and empty bed Bb Dm Stirrin' up ash's, tryin' to find passion C Bb Where there's no love left Dm C Bb It's like tryin to put smoke back in this cigarette Bb C Bb C
