The Girl I Left Behind

[Verse 1]
G                 C         D    
It ain't much different out here 
  G      C
I found
D         G                      
It's just different names for the
      C       D     G     C  D
 same old hillbilly towns
Em                      D
  Welcome signs for the shotgun 
homes
C                       D
  Familiar faces in the same old 
rows


[Chorus]
     G          C
With every cafe corner diner
         Am                D
It's the same old story to some old 
timer
G                       C
Rundown tavern on a dim lit street
        Am                         
I'd see my old friends in everybody
 D
 I'd meet

    F                         Em  
The only thing missin' that I 
             D
can't seem to fi-ind
                     G
Is the girl I left behind

[Verse 2]
G                            
  There's been a few that have 
         C    D          G      C
caught me a little off guard

D                                 
  I try to fool myself but I just 
C          D  G     C
can't fool my heart
D       Em                D
  Every pretty green-eyed girl I see
        C                         
Gets me further away from where I 
D
want to be


[Chorus]
G                    C
Summertime tailgate, road-side 
stands
        Am                     
Sellin' home grown tomatoes and 
      D
strawberry jam
G                             C
Little white churches and country 
stores
             Am            D
Every town's just like the one 
before

    F                         Em  
The only thing missin' that I 
             D
can't seem to fi-ind
                     C
Is the girl I left behind me


[Bridge]
C
Standin' on her momma's front porch
D
Wavin' through the black smoke 
rollin' outta that old Ford
C
Took me to some backwards town
        D
Wishin' I had you
                         G
But you're nowhere to be found

          F                        
Yeah, The only thing missin' that I
 Em            D
 can't seem to find
                     G
Is the girl I left behind
