Keith Whitley – I Went Crazy For A While (Guitar)

Db                              Ab
She asked me how I've been since her leaving me,

F                     Ab
But old friend, thanks for your concern.

Db                 Ab
You say you haven't seen me for some time now,

   Bb                             Eb
And if I've been gone, when did I return?

Ab                 Db          Ab
I stayed in the same place she left me:

                   Eb          Ab
Close to the phone, just in case she dialed.

Db             Ab
But it seems I recall that I went somewhere.

Eb                    Db                 Ab
I went out of my mind so I wouldn't have to see

                                   Eb
The fool in the mirror or face reality

Db                  Ab                               Db       Ab
And I've stared at her picture for so long, I saw her smile.

Db                    Ab
I'm doin' time here inside a mem'ry,

F                        Eb            Ab
And I need her like a prisner needs a file.

Db                   Ab
I'd like to tell you more but I forgot the rest.

                    Eb                Ab
Oh, did I mention? I went crazy for a while.

Eb                    Db                 Ab
I went out of my mind so I wouldn't have to see

                                   Eb    Bb
The fool in the mirror or face reality.

  Db                 Ab                            Db
And I've stared at her picture for so long, I saw her smile.

Db
Yeah, I went crazy for a while.

Db
I went crazy for a while.
