C Am F G C
G/B Am F
She was crying out in pain, Standing in the driveway
G C
Little bare feet wearing her cotton dress and I
Am F
I still see the rain chasing tears down her face
G Am
It was back in October when I said it’s over and hid
G F Am
Behind the door, behind the shame of my conviction
G F
Bedside myself ,beside some empty pill prescription
G C
Can hear her screaming'
G Am
No baby don't, you making my heart hurt
F G C

G
You swore when I wore your ring It meant forever
Am G F G C

To a bed as empty as the heart inside my chest
G/B Am
So I gathered up some pictures,
F
I said I had somethin to give her I let her read a letter,
G Am
I had a written her to give her on the day we tied the knot
