Cadd9  G                Em               G 
Seeing things a little different 'round here
       C           G              D           G
Honey aint much changed since you left last year
G                             Em       G
This town's still dead as it used to be
    C                G         D        G
ah main street's as broken as your company

C/F#                      G                Em                         C/F#
I've seen my share of heartache in cheap motels yeah they're all the same
C/F#               G                   D              
Stuck inside of a living hell honey you're the one to blame
C/F#                G                     Em             C/F#
I'd rather be the cold one and tell you just the way I feel
C/F#                        G                    D                      G
Than to come back home and hold you knowing the road has my heart to steal

Cadd9 G          Em           G
You left here a pretty high flyer
           C      G            D        G
Yeah the greener grass made a fool of you
            G                     Em      G
Now your coming back sorry, well your a liar
             C         G      D       G   
and girl im way past long gone, over you


Repeat Chorus...

Cadd9   G    Em    G

Bridge
D                                     C                 G
Well I guess you got my best now im taking back whats left
D                                           C                D
I guess I could get back with you but I'd just be wrecking myself


Repeat Chorus...

*** This is the way that I play it (most of the time) but feel free to play either 
variation of "C" throughout the song...(Cadd9, C, or C/F#) they all sound right. Cheers!
