[Verse 1]
G                                                     F     C
I had a girl sweet as peaches, eyes as bright as the 'Bama beaches
G                                      F          C          G
Kissed me goodbye, left me speechless, she don't love me no more
G                                            F        C
I can draw from a dry well, I head down the lonesome trail
G                                       F          C          G
Lord I've figured what the hell, 'cause she don't love me no more


[Chorus 1]
F                 G        F                  G
I can get down to Houston, I can get there by dawn
        F                       G               F             C     D
There's plenty of stuff in that city that gets somethin' good goin' on
F                    G               F               G
And I wanna keep on comin', but she don't want me around
            F                C                        F         C         G
'Cause she stole my heart, killed my pride, but she can't put me in the ground
        F           C        G
Naw it can't put me in the ground


[Verse 2]
G                                                                F        C
Well my best friend since junior high, half as good lookin' and twice as wild
G                                             F         C          G
He and my sweetheart started makin' out, now she don't love me no more
     F          C         G
Naw she don't love me no more


[Chorus 2]
     F                  G      F                   G
Well I can get down to Mobile, I can get there by 5:00
F                  G        F      C       D
I got just enough money to get on with my life
     F                G              F              G
Well I wanna keep on comin', but she don't want me around
            F               C                        F          C         G
'Cause she stole my heart, killed my pride, but she can't put me in the ground
       F           C         G
Honey can't put me in the ground, naw

F                  G            F             C     D

         F                G             F              G
Well but I wanna keep on comin', if she don't want me around
          F                   C                        F          C        G
Yeah she stole my heart, she killed my pride, but she can't put me in the ground
          F           C        G
Well she can't put me in the ground
