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
(repeat 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
(repeat chorus)
