Quit While I'm Ahead Turnpike Troubadours Album: Goodbye Normal Street (2012) [Verse 1]
Well I wont Elie and say I didn’t think the good ones all were taken Since there Aaint no peaches falling from the Etree that I've been shaking And it's Esolitary B7sleeping in this G#bed that I've beenA making Well Emaybe I should B7quit while I'm Eahead
Well my inEtent was being handed I never laid a hand And the kiAndness of my gesture was a gEood far cry from grand They were aEwful well iB7ntended, they were G#all that I canA stand Ah mEaybe I should qB7uit while I'm aEhead
[Chorus]
And now B7darlin if I called you, could you love me like a kid Could you Elove me like you loved me way back when you really did Well B7Darlin if I called you could you just pick up the phone Lord, I've been Adancing with damnation and I'm drinking all alone And I am Ebusted broke and B7bent and beat and 'G#bout halfway toA dead Ah Emaybe I should B7quit while I'm aEhead, oh Lord, well Emaybe I should B7quit while I'm aEhead

WeEll West Texas in the morning, little darling are you down Where the Acolor of the country is your Esweet eye shade of brown And if I Etold you how I B7felt, well you’d say G#boy get out ofA town WelEl maybe I should B7quit while I'm Eahead
[Chorus]
Now B7darlin if I called you, could you love me like a kid Could you Elove me like you loved me way back when you really did Well B7Darlin if I called you would you even talk to me When I am lAit up like a star atop your favorite Christmas tree And I am Ebusted broke and B7bent and beat and G#'bout half way toA dead Ah Emaybe I should B7quit while im Eahead, oh Lord well Emaybe I should B7quit while I'm Eahead
*Instumental break* [Chorus]
And now B7darlin if I called you, could you love me like a kid Could you Elove me like you loved me way back when you really did Well B7Darlin if I called you could you just pick up the phone Lord, I've been Adancing with damnation and I'm drinking all alone And I am Ebusted broke and B7bent and beat and 'G#bout halfway toA dead Ah Emaybe I should B7quit while I'm aEhead, oh Lord, well Emaybe I should B7quit while I'm aEhead
