As recorded by Jason Aldean (2025 release) [Verse 1]
         G                              C
She said she was headed over to see her mama

          G                                  C
To try to clear her head she needed a little time

              G                               C
Said we could talk more about it later if you wanna

               G                                    C
Walked out the door swore everything was gonna be alright

              D                             C
But it’s been four days and three nights of whiskey

            D                                     C
And I ain’t heard a word from her and that’s what gets me

C
So tell me
[Chorus]
G D C              G      D C
How far does a goodbye go

      G
Is it down to a corner bar

D        C
Or outta town in a getaway car

        G                      D     C
If it’s on a map this cowboy’s gotta know

        Em            D                 C                     G/B            Am
Is it a couple miles away comin’ up the road or on a midnight train on a runaway track

               C
How far does a goodbye go

                   G    D C  G  C
Till it don’t come back
[Verse 2]
             G
I might have been alright

                        C
If I’d seen her leavin’ comin’

                        G                                        C
Instead of sittin’ here striking up another front porch Marlboro Light

       G                                     C
Is she big sky fast lane gone got the horses running

               G                                        C
Looks like I’m on the wrong side of ridin’ off into the sunset this time

C
Tell me
[Chorus]
G D C              G      D C
How far does a goodbye go

      G
Is it down to a corner bar

D        C
Or outta town in a getaway car

        G                      D     C
If it’s on a map this cowboy’s gotta know

        Em            D                 C                     G/B            Am
Is it a couple miles away comin’ up the road or on a midnight train on a runaway track

               C
How far does a goodbye go

                   G    D C
Till it don’t come back

                G       C
Till it don’t come back
[Bridge]
          D                             C
It’s been four days and three nights of whiskey

            D                                     C
And I ain’t heard a word from her and that’s what gets me

C
So tell me
[Out-Chorus]
G   C              G      D C
How far does a goodbye go

        Em            D                 C                     G/B            Am
Is it a couple miles away comin’ up the road or on a midnight train on a runaway track

               C
How far does a goodbye go

                   G    D C
Till it don’t come back

                G       D C  G
Till it don’t come back
