She Wouldn't Be Gone

Intro: C

C                                 
Red roadside wild flower if I'd 
   Cmaj7
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                                 
Yellow sunset slowly dipping down 
       Cmaj7
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

C                                 
Driving like hell flying like 
           Cmaj7
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
Screaming out her name at the 
Cmaj7                          Am
windshield tears soaking up my face
If I had loved her this much all 
Cmaj7 F                G
along maybe maybe yeah maybe
               C  Cmaj7           
She wouldn't be gone she wouldn't 
  Am    Cmaj7
be gone

    C                              
She warned me it was coming said if
                         Cmaj7
 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
Called her mama cried like a baby to
     Cmaj7
 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                                 
Red roadside wild flower if I'd 
   Cmaj7
only picked you
                             Am    
Took you home set you on the 
                        Cmaj7
counter oh at least a time or two
                       C
Maybe she'd thought it through
