F#The first night I shouldâC#ve left you,

F#I prayed to God Iâ?C#?d wake up somewG#here else.
F#When the morninâ camC#e to find me,
A#mYou were sleepinâ tG#here beside me,
F#I wondered if this C#nightmare ever G#endsâ¦
(same for the rest of the song!!)
The door was left wide open,
And the neighbors, they were smokinâ in the afternoon,
To pass away the time.
You looked at me so cold and said,
âThis house is not my home,â
I wish you knew how true that felt most nights.
Is it bitterness or sympathy,
That keeps you standinâ here with me?
Iâm not sure how much more I can take.
âCause I have sacrificed my peace of mind,
To sit here with you wastinâ time,
And now I think Iâd like to walk away.
I was standing in Ohio,
On the 28th of March,
With a guitar and a suitcase in my hands.
When the wind, it stole my cap,
Lord, all I could do was laugh,
And thank the stars Iâm still a drinkinâ man.
Is it bitterness or sympathy,
That keeps you standinâ here with me?
Iâm not sure how much more I can take.
âCause I have sacrificed my peace of mind,
To sit here with you wastinâ time,
And now I think Iâd like to walk away.
I was walkinâ in a graveyard,
Where no one that I know rests,
Thinkinâ maybe I could clear my head.
And on the cemetery breeze,
I heard a song about belief,
Sung with a thunder I canât understand.
Is it bitterness or sympathy,
That keeps you standinâ here with me?
Iâm not sure how much more I can take.
âCause I have sacrificed my peace of mind,
To sit here with you wastinâ time,
And now I think Iâd like to walk away.
