A D A Could not get to sleep it was on my wedding night F#m E D E I was tangled in the sheets and I was dreaming of a light D E A D Pouring from her window coming up through the floor D E Lifting up the darkness crashing through my kitchen door A D A Down to that old oak table I went to take a look F#m E D E And my whole life passed before me just like a story book D E A D She used to make me breakfast sit around and talk D E Have anothe cup of coffee maybe take a little walk F#m E A D Like Dust down a country road D E Blowing in the wind behind an old truck load F#m E A D up before the roster crowed D E A There's an old dog staring at the dust down a county road A D A That truck is going somewhere I just can't be sure F#m E D E And tomorrow's just a day after all that's gone before D E A D I always thought of leaving I never could stay too long D E Now her memory's catching up and her sweet dreams are all gone (CHORUS) A D A If I had a bullet I'd put in this gun F#m E D E And I'd catch that old dog naping and shoot him fore he'd run D E A D Cause he ain't much good for nothing cept starring at the dust D E Lord I wonder what he's looking at sneaking up on us (CHORUS)
