Tonight, I'm dusting off the Bible 'stead of leaning on the bottle like I do

           Am                             F                  C
Just might trade that ol' bar stool for a hard-back ol' pine pew

Am7                      F                            C    G
Drown out your dear John with some Matthew, Mark, and Luke

             Am7                             F                            C
Tonight, I'm dusting off the Bible 'stead of leaning on the bottle like I do
[Chorus]
    F              G            Am7                    C
But yeah, that 100 proof Gospel truth is she's goodbye gone

F                     G                      Am7
Yeah, 'tween red word lines and them red taillights

    Am7                        F                    C
God knew when He made her even He couldn't make her stay

Yeah, that girl was amazing, but sometimes amazing still runs out of grace

        Am7               F                                    C
