D                                        A
Gave you a reason to walk out on me that night

                       Em
And go looking for Mr. Right

        Bm             G   A
Cause I sure look like Mr. Wrong

                            Bm              G
A deer in the headlights, I stood there and lied

       D             A
Made a ghost town of part of you

Bm            G             D             A
Sat there and cried while I shot down the heart of you

Bm         G           D           A
Couldn't decide if the end was the start of you

  Em                G
I shut my mouth and waited

       D/F#      G    A
In the mess that I created
[Chorus]
           D                                G
Write your name in the sky for the world to see

                 A
Cause you're the best damn thing that ever happened to me

      G                              D           A
We're still standing now, you didn't cut the run, ooh

      D                                 G
I was crying on the beach by the raging sea

       A
Just a small town broken down refugee

G                                     A
Holier than thou, I caused the damage done

           G                   A
You're the best damn thing and I'm the lucky one
[Interlude] D G [Verse 2]
D                                   A
My mad season as vain as a bar room fight

                 Em
Remote as a satellite

      Bm               G      A
I was out of touch and out of time too long in the spotlight

Bm       G           D                A
So incomplete that I burned something beautiful

Bm         G            D         A
Out on the street I was walking delusional

Bm        G          D           A
Your body heat moves something immovable

  Em                G
I close my eyes and pray, yeah

         D/F#      G      A
From the mess that I have made
[Chorus 2]
           D                                G
Write your name in the sky for the world to see

                 A
Cause you're the best damn thing that ever happened to me

      G                              D           A
We're still standing now, you didn't cut the run, ooh

      D                                 G
I was crying on the beach by the raging sea

       A
Just a small town broken down refugee

G                                     A
Holier than thou, I caused the damage done

           G                   A                    D
You're the best damn thing and I'm the lucky one

                 A
I'm the lucky one

                  Em Bm
I'm the lucky one

        G         A
I'm the lucky one
[Bridge]
  Bm           G        D           A
I know that it hurt and sorry don't even do it

  Bm            G           D            A
A short pleated skirt and I jumped and I know I blew it

Bm         G             D             A
Threw me a lifeline, I'm sticking like glue to it

Em                 G
Held my breath and waited

         D/F#      G    A
From the mess that I created

      D
Gonna write your name (gonna write your name)

      G
Gonna write your name (gonna write your name)

      Bm
Gonna write your name (gonna write your name)

      G
Gonna write your name
[Chorus 3]
           D                                G
Write your name in the sky for the world to see

                 A
Cause you're the best damn thing that ever happened to me

      G                              D           A
We're still standing now, you didn't cut the run, ooh

      D                                 G
I was crying on the beach by the raging sea

       A
Just a small town broken down refugee

G                                     A
Holier than thou, I caused the damage done

           G                   A               D G Bm G D
You're the best damn thing and I'm the lucky one
