So there are hardly any chord charts for Corey Smith songs and this is my absolute favorite, so I figured I'd post it. This is the way I play it and make it sound as close to Corey as I can because I'm nowhere near the guitarist Corey is. He plays open barre chords throughout the song and no capo. He is tuned down a half step and then in drop D. So I play capo on the 3rd fret. You can play open but these chords are relative to the capo and a half step down and drop D tuning. It's a real fun and interesting song to play. Give it a listen and hear all the little things he does and make it your own. I hope yall enjoy!! Intro D G D G [Verse 1]
D                                  G
I've been beaten, I've been abused

G                                    D
I've been cheated and I've been used

D               G
They said that I'm no good

D
Heart stone cold, black and blue

Reminder of the shit they put me through

D                 G
Oh, it's getting' old

A                       G
Time to show myself the door

It's over
[Verse 2]
D                              G
Where I'm goin', I don't know

G                             D
Somewhere down this dusty road

           G
North on 441

D                                    G                               D
Past the rollin' cattle fields, the trailer parks and rusted cotton mills

D              G             A
Lord, get me outta' here

A               G       A
I've made up my mind

I'm not givin' in this time

     D
It's over
[Chorus]
      D
I'M A HEARTBREAK RUNAWAY

     G
ON A FAST RIDE TOWARD THE INTERSTATE

            D
I'M LEAVIN' THIS PLACE WITHOUT A MINUTE TO WASTE

           G
NO LOOKIN' OVER MY SHOULDER

         D
OH IT'S OVER
[Verse 3]
D                                G                         D
Been in prison locked in chains, Bible beat into my brain

D                           G
They said you gotta' trust and obey

         D                             G                                 D
But I've busted loose, I'm on the run, screamin' at the top of my lungs

              G             A
Thank God I'm free at last

A                     G      A
Feel like I've been reborn

A                        G
There's no pretending anymore
Bridge (D G throughout entire bridge)
D
Daddy's been drinkin' beers, every night for twenty years

               G
And Mama just sits there on the couch, poppin' pills to drown her tears

               D
And they keep doggin' me, you're not worth a damn and your just gonna' be

         G
Another failure and a jailbird like everyone in the family

     D
So I hang out in a parkin' lot, get stoned with my two friends

                  G
‘Cause there the ones who understand the situation that I'm in

     D
They feel my pain and man I'm gonna miss ‘em when I'm gone

               G
But I'm movin' on, ‘cause if I don't I'll be dead by twenty-one

     D
I'll shoot myself in the head before I wind up like my dad

          G
Workin' a job I hate and takin' out my anger on a kid

      D
I can hear my Mama cryin', as I cross that county line

                 G
‘Cause she knows I'm not comin' back
I'm leavin' all this shit behind
   D
I told her I'm a soldier, I'm wiser and I'm older

   G
I got my education now I'm outta' here
It's over [Chorus]
      D
I'M A HEARTBREAK RUNAWAY

      G
ON A FAST RIDE TOWARD THE INTERSTATE

           D
I'M LEAVIN' THIS PLACE WITHOUT A MINUTE TO WASTE

           G
NO LOOKIN' OVER MY SHOULDER

            D
OH IT'S OVER

                    G
NO GOODBYE NOW IM GONE
IT'S ALL OVER
D                   G
NO GOODBYE NOW IM GONE
IT'S ALL OVER
D                   G
NO GOODBYE NOW IM GONE

             D
IT'S ALL OVER
