G
Honey, now that your shackles are gone

C
And you're out there on your own

           G
Won't you let me know

               D
If things get hard

G
Honey, now that your shackle's been lifted

           C
You're a sweet young thing and you're oh so gifted

          G
Will you let me know

                D
If things turn bad
[Pre-Chorus]
            C                      G
I wasn't looking for trouble but trouble came

          C                            G
I wasn't looking to change, I'll never be the same

     Em                 C  D     G
But life's not what you make it, baby
[Chorus]
Em
Send me a postcard

D                           C   G
When you get to where you're going

Em
Send me a line

   D                  C     G
To everything you've left behind
[Verse 2]
G
Honey, now that I've found my way

       C
And I miss you more than I can say

           G
Won't you promise to

                 D
Say a prayer for me

G
Honey, now that the morning's come

C
We're both still out on the run

           G
Won't you let me know

             D
If you feel free
[Pre-Chorus]
          C                       G
We were looking to mend it but we tore it apart

      C                  G
And I went and broke my own goddamned heart

      Em                 C  D      G
See, life's not what you make it, baby
[Chorus]
Em

G
I was just a kid when I fell for you

          C
I'm not much older now but even then I knew

          G                          D
That the road was steep and full of strife
[Pre-Chorus]
         C                             G
I never knew what to say, could never get it right

         C                  G
And I'm alone again at the end of night

     Em                 C D      G
For life's not what you make it, baby
[Chorus]
Em
