She Wouldn't Be Gone

Intro: C

C                                    Cmaj7
Red roadside wild flower if I'd only picked you
                             Am
Took you home set you on the counter
                      Cmaj7
Oh at least a time or two
                          C
Maybe she'd thought it through.
C                                        Cmaj7
Yellow sunset slowly dipping down in the rear view
                             Am
Oh how she'd love to sit and watch you
                         Cmaj7
I could have done that a whole lot more
            G
If I hadn't been so stubborn been so selfish
F
Thought about her more thought about me less
G
Joked and made her laugh held her when she cried
  F                G
A little more that maybe I wouldn't be

{Chorus}
C                                            Cmaj7
Driving like hell flying like crazy down the highway
                    Am
Calling everyone we know stopping any place she might be
Cmaj7                        C
Going any place she might go beating on the dash
                              Cmaj7                          Am
Screaming out her name at the windshield tears soaking up my face
                                 Cmaj7 F                G
If I had loved her this much all along maybe maybe yeah maybe
               C  Cmaj7             Am    Cmaj7
She wouldn't be gone she wouldn't be gone

    C                                                       Cmaj7
She warned me it was coming said if I didn't change she was leaving
                Am
I just didn't believe
                           Cmaj7
She would ever really walk out
                   C
God I believe her now
                                         Cmaj7
Called her mama cried like a baby to her best friend
                              Am
If they've seen her they ain't sayin
          Cmaj7
They ain't sayin
        G
Now I'm cursing like a fool praying it ain't too late
F
All I wanna do is fix my mistakes
G
Find her beg her for one more try
F          G
Until then damn it I'll be

{Chorus}

C                                    Cmaj7
Red roadside wild flower if I'd only picked you
                             Am                            Cmaj7
Took you home set you on the counter oh at least a time or two
                       C
Maybe she'd thought it through
