[Verse 1]
         F                        C
There is concrete below me and a sky above so blue
    G                            F
I'm finally leaving Austin and I wish it was with you
F                            C
I am just a sickness and you seem to be the cure
G                             F
How much can a southern girl honestly endure?


[Verse 2]
  F                                     C
Remember northwest mountains, they were snow-capped in June
         G                        F
You were napping on my arms on a Sunday afternoon
    F                                      C
But babe, I've gotta heal myself from the things I've never felt
 G                               F
Repression is my heaven but I'd rather go through hell


[Chorus]
                            Am
It's 'bout time that I left Austin
                        G
'Bout time you settled down
                        F                                           C
With a man who doesn't move as quick as the trains rolling through town
                   Am
'Bout time that I face
                         G
the hard times I've let go
                    F                             C
If love was just an ocean I would drown before I float

[Verse 3]
      F                            C
You remember getting drunk on the outskirts of this town
        G                         F
When I gave you all I had but it still let you down?
  F                        C
Everyone I ever loved has either left or died
     G                                  F
Wish I was born with concrete shoes but I'm leavin' tonight


[Chorus]
                            Am
It's 'bout time that I left Austin
                        G
'Bout time you settled down
                        F                                           C
With a man who doesn't move as quick as the trains rolling through town
                   Am
'Bout time that I face
                         G
the hard times I've let go
                    F                             C
If love was just an ocean I would drown before I float

[Verse 4]
        F                        C
There's concrete below me and a sky above so blue
G                            F
People ruin people, I don't wanna ruin you
F                            C
I am just a sickness and you seem to be the cure
G                             F
How much can a southern girl honestly endure?


[Chorus]
                          Am
And I'm finally gone from Austin
                    G
You finally settled down
                      F                                               C
With a man who didn't move as quick as the trains that rolled through town
                 Am
I finally had to face
                        G
the hard times I've let go
                     F                                   C
If lovin' you was an ocean I'd have drowned so you could float
