E B7
When I read this mornings headlines I saw your name
E
And it mentioned just two others that share your fame
A E
In another fourteen days you would have married me
B7 E
Now there's nothing but a cross out on route 23
[Verse 2]
E B7
Well I walked that stretch of pavement where you breathed your last
E
Run my fingers though the gravel & the broken glass
A E
They told me not to come here, but I had to see
B7 E
All that's left of what was once mine on route 23
[Instrumental]
E B7 A E B7 E X3
[Verse 3]
E B7
Well I'm a goin' to your funeral then I'm goin' away
E
Without you here beside me it's no use to stay
A E
Everything I had ain't nothing but a memory
B7 E
And a cross marks the spot out on route 23
