Em C G D

Em                                              C
As I slide the key in the ignition of this ol' truck and fire it up
G                                                  D
I'm struck hard by the heaviness of this situation
Em                                                       C
My eyes are fixed on the small silver half heart keychain you gave me dangling in the
dashboard light
G                                             D
I read the word "forever" over and over again, I wanna cry

Em                      C
I turn off my radio as I turn off your county road
     G                                    D
To pick you up just like I've done at least a thousand times
     Em
The gravel underneath these tires
  C
Half mile stretch of ol barbed wire
  G                                         D
Drops of rain fallin from the sky seem to know my pain

Know that I'm about to

Em                                     C
Reach out to hold your hand in mine, feel your love baby one more time
  G                                               D
Press against your lips and hold you tight, I know the next kiss is a kiss goodbye
Em                                 C
I could put it off for another day act like everything's gonna be okay
             G
It's gonna break my heart to see you cry
      D
I know the next kiss is a kiss goodbye

         Em                                                    C
See it's not that what I got to do is more important than you
                           G
It's just what I gotta do
                                D
And I know you don't understand, hell I don't understand myself

Em                          C                                   G
          D
As I pull up to your house, I feel my head spinnin' around just thinkin' about how
everything is a, about to change
Em                                        C
Every step I take towards your door I'm a little less certain than the step before
       G                    D
Oh but I know, I know, I know what I gotta do

          Em                                   C
I got to reach out and hold your hand in mine, feel your love baby one more time
   G                                            D
Press against your lips and hold you tight, I know the next kiss is a kiss goodbye
Em                                  C
I could put it off for another day, act like everything's gonna be okay
            G
It's gonna break my heart to see you cry
    D                                Em
I know the next kiss is a kiss goodbye

Reach out and hold your hand in mine, feel your love baby one more time
 G                                    D
Press against your lips and hold you tight
     Em                                      C
Yeah I could put it off for another day and act like everything's gonna be okay
             G
It's gonna break my heart to see you cry
