D                                    Bm                                   G
She was crying out my name, Standing in the driveway
                                                               
Little bare feet wearing her cotton dress and I
D                        Bm                       G
I still see the rain chasing tears down her face

It was back in October when I said it’s over and hid
Bm           A                     G
Behind the door, behind the shame of my conviction
Bm            A                       G
Bedside myself ,beside some empty pill prescription

Can hear her screamig' no


D          A                           
No baby don't, you making my heart hurt
Bm
Don’t say those words
G                      A
Take it back, you know you don't mean that
D                                      A
You swore when I wore your ring

It meant forever
Bm                  A                            G
I've got it on baby, how can you say I lost it

Oh, you promised

D                                              Bm                    G
Started crying while I was sleeping, waking up and reaching out

To a bed as empty as the heart inside my chest
D                                         Bm                                 G
So I gathered up some pictures, i said i had somethin to give her

I let her read a letter, i had a written her to give her on the day we tied the knot
Bm               A
I saw the tears
              G
I saw them fall as she read the part of my growing old
Bm                  A              G                       
I heard her words, i heard her say it'll never work

And hit my knees and cried

D         A
No baby don't you're making my heart hurt
Bm
Don’t say those words
G
Take it back, you know you dont mean it
D                                        A
You swore when you wore my ring

It meant forever
   Bm                     A                               G
You’ve got it on baby, How can you say you lost it
                  Bm
Yeah and you promised


Bm
We were different people then
A
Look at all the hateful things we’ve said
G
And I’m just as guilty,but girl you that's no wat to be
Bm
Take it easy baby I’m still broken
A
Memories enough to tear me wide open
G
When you see me girl you curse my name

Makes me wanna say no



D         A
No baby don't you're making my heart hurt
Bm
Don’t say those words
G                      A
Take it back, you know you dont mean it
D                                        A
You swore when you wore my ring

We said forever
Bm                     A                                 G

Bm                                 A                           G
But no matter what you do you know i'll always love you
