G F              C
  I had already stopped by the bait shop

 Gsus4                        G
Filled up the cooler and the tank and the tackle box

 F                      C
Weatherman calling for cloudy and eighty-two.

 Had already made up her goodbye mind

 G
Took her things, left me nothing but them tail lights

 F                         C                 G

And that's the reason that I'm
