Intro: E  A  B7  E  A  B7 

E           B7
Four jobs - 2 years 
A                      E
Too many late nights - Too many tears 
A                        B7             E A B7
But, she keeps giving me second chances    
E            B7
Once I had a dream I chased 
A                  E
Whatever it was, I guess it escaped 
       A                             B7
Still, I'm the only one she wants to dance with 
              A                   E
   If she was lookin' for leavin' reasons 
       B7                        E
   She wouldn't have to look too far 
           A
   All the tears she's cried 
                   E
   Would more than justify 
   B7
   Throwing away my heart 
   A                      E
   God only knows why she does it 
                          A
   But, she keeps hangin' on 
                                  E
   If she was lookin' for leavin' reasons 
   B7       E
   She'd be gone   
A  B7  E  A  B7 

E           B7 
Some nights I lie awake
A                  E 
Wondering just how much she'll take 
A          B7             E    A B7
Before she quietly walks away 
E                      B7
Sometimes I fail her - But, to my surprise 
A            E
She fails to criticize 
A                                 B7
Lord, she must be in this love to stay 
 
Repeat Chorus 
                                  E 
   If she was lookin' for leavin' reasons 
   B7       E
   She'd be gone
