[Verse 1]

D
Leather jacket
D       G          D                G
Trip to Colorado, drinking from the bottle
       A     G         D
Don't wanna waste the glass
D      G           D                    G
In the morning, I pray she'll still be with me
          D                G
Like the remnants of this whiskey
             A       G      D
She'll keep clouding up my mind

[Chorus 1]
          G                             D
She wrote letters to the orphanage the year
that she aged out
         G
Came to town to pass the weekend
          D             A
And then never turned around
       G
I was sixteen and a half years old
     Bm       A      G
Did what she said I should
                 D
Yeah, she's good

[Verse 2]

        D
I kept wandering
G                D
Singing 'bout my mother,
G                 D
trying to call my brother
        A    G      D
Leaving messages at home
G          D
Despite my blessings
        G               D
I felt hemmed in by the city
       G                 D
Like a bird trapped in a chimney
       A         G   D
Always crashing into walls

[Chorus 2]
        G
When I got back home to Georgia
        D
She was nowhere to be found
         G
'Til she sat right down beside me
         D               A
And said I should be the next round
        G
I would cry but I think first things first
      Bm      A        G
I'll probably knock on wood
                D
Yeah, she's good

[Bridge]
G                        D
     She don't wanna need,
G                  A
     anything like me

[Verse 3]

G          D
Now she's laughing
G             D
Saying I'm so simple
    G              D
My fingers trace a dimple
                          A
on the right side of her spine
    G         D
Her Christian kindness,
         G        D
ran out of gas in Memphis
        G             D
But her wanderlust is endless
       A       G        D
So she kept on down the road

[Chorus 3]
        G
I don't think that either one of us
   D
is ever going home
      G
And I know enough about her
      D                        A
to be sure there's things I'll never know
 G
I can't tell you how this ends
    Bm      A        G
But bet you that she could
                 D       G     D
Yeah, she's good
                 D       G     D
It's true


She's good
                 D       G      D
