G                          Em                   C                G
Lorrie lit a cigarette and smiled and waved the smoke out of her face

         G                         Em                C                      G    C  G
With her black hair brown from the summer sun, green eyes looked around the place

         G                               Em                      C               G
Then she told me that she loved me and I grinned and grabbed her hand and said I know

      G                 Em              C                     G
Let's get from here now darlin' if we're goin' let's go on and go
G Em C G x2
      G                              Em                           C                   G
Well, Lorrie said her family used to have a little money and they still act like they do

         G                     Em            C                  G
But your daddy don't think I'm fit to sit in the same room with you

         G                Em                       C                          G
And if I ever set foot in Sevier County, well your brother said he'd break my jaw

G                   Em                      C              G
Here I stand with a dark haired daughter of southwest Arkansas
[Chorus]
              C        C/B    Am             G      G/F#     Em
And I've been learnin' that believin' and that barely breakin' even

     C      C/B     Am               G
It's just a part of life for you and me

              C      C/B      Am             G        G/F#  Em
And I've been livin' with the loneliness, it's got down in my bones I guess

     C     C/B    Am             D
It's just another phase of being free

              Am                                               C
And I've been learnin' how to lose a thing I never laid a hand on all along

      G         D         Em                 D       C
Well, good lord Lorrie, I love you, could it go more wrong

      G         D         Em                 D       C
Well, good lord Lorrie, I love you, could it go more wrong

        Am                              G  Em  C  G  G  Em  C  G

Well, De Queen's dry so I bought us both a bottle in downtown Broken Bow

G                           Em                             C           G
Lorrie's got a buddy with a double wide trailer, they were shaking dominoes

          G                      Em                  C           G
And I had good intentions 'til I had too many, I was stupid I suppose

           G                             Em               C              G
You better put a little money where your mouth is boy and try to keep it closed
[Chorus]
              C        C/B    Am             G      G/F#     Em
And I've been learnin' that believin' and that barely breakin' even

     C      C/B     Am               G
It's just a part of life for you and me

              C      C/B      Am             G        G/F#  Em
And I've been livin' with the loneliness, it's got down in my bones I guess

     C     C/B    Am             D
It's just another phase of being free

              Am                                               C
And I've been learnin' how to lose a thing I never laid a hand on all along

      G         D         Em                 D       C
Well, good lord Lorrie, I love you, could it go more wrong

(Harmonica) [Verse 3]
      G                            Em                 C                G
Well, Lorrie said I wonder what we ever went through all this trouble for

          G             Em                  C                 G
You ain't half of who I thought you was and this ain't fun no more

        G                       Em                 C               G
And her words cut clean through drunk and dark and dimmin' doorway light

           G             Em                  C              G
Well, I've had all I can handle, hope you're happy now, goodnight

G         C          G                C          G
Guess her folks were right, guess her folks were right

C
Mhmmm

      G         D         Em                 D       C
Well, goodnight Lorrie, I love you, could it go more wrong

      G         D         Em                 D       C
Well, goodnight Lorrie, I love you, could it go more wrong

        Am                              G
La, da, da, da, da, da ,da ,da ,da ,da ,da
