E
I guess I couldn't hold a candle
      A
To a place I've never been
               B                       A
I guess that blue sky in the picture on the mantle
                      E
Pulled you right back in
E
Nobody was unfaithful
         A
And you didn't need your space
            B                              A
And what's worse is I didn't lose you to a person
                E
I lost you to a place


[Chorus]
C#m         A           E
Don't wanna hate you, Oklahoma
C#m         A            E
But you're why she had to leave
C#m          A           E
Truth is that I don't even know ya
 B                                 A
I just know she loves you more than me


[Verse 2]
           E
I guess I should've seen it comin'
            A
She talked about you all the time
            B                   A
Bet I could even rattle off the population
                     E
I've never seen the signs
           E
Bet she's crossin' into Memphis
           A
I bet you're all that's on her mind
               B                                 A
'Cause you're the one that got away she's comin' back to
                  E
And I'm left here behind


[Chorus]
C#m         A           E
Don't wanna hate you, Oklahoma
C#m         A           E
But you're why she had to leave
 C#m         A           E
Truth is that I don't even know ya
   B                               Asus4
I just know she loves you more than me
  A                            B
Why does she love you more than me

[Solo]
B C#m A x2

[Chorus]
C#m         A           E
I don't wanna hate you, Oklahoma
C#m         A           E
But you're why she had to leave
C#m         A           E
Truth is that I don't even know ya
B                               Asus4
I just know she loves you more than me
A                                 E
Why does she love you more than me
