[Verse 1]
D G D She said "it's none of my business but it breaks my heart" D/B G D Dropped a dozen cheap roses in my shopping cart D G D Made it out to the truck without breaking down D/B G D Everybody knows you in a speed trap town D G D It's a Thursday night but there's a high school game D/B G D Sneak a bottle up the bleachers and forget my name D G D These 5-A bastards run a shallow cross D/B G D It's a boy's last dream and a man's first loss
[Chorus 1]
Em G D A And it never did occur to me to leave, 'til tonight Em G D There's no one left to ask if I'm all right Em G D A Sleep until I'm straight enough to drive, then decide Em G D If there's anything that can't be left behind
[Verse 2]
D G D The doctor said daddy wouldn't make it a year D/B G D But the holidays are over and he's still here D G D How long can they keep you in the ICU D/B G D Veins through the skin like a faded tattoo D G D Was a tough state trooper 'til a decade back D/B G D When that girl who wasn't mama caused his heart attack D G D He didn't care about us when he was walkin' around D/B G D Just pulling women over in a speed trap town
[Chorus 2]
Em G D A But it never did occur to me to leave, 'til tonight Em G D When I realized he'll never be all right Em G D A Sign my name and say my last goodbye, then decide Em G D That there's nothing here that can't be left behind
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
D G D Roads got blurry when the sun came up D/B G D Slept a couple hours in the pickup truck D G D Drank a cup of coffee by an Indian mound D/B G D Thousand miles away from that speed trap town D/B G D Thousand miles away from that speed trap town
