The Last Good Thing

[Intro]  F  G  C

  F                            G        C
I saw her in the halls of that old high school
           F                         G      C
She was as pretty as the sun on the morning dew
  F                            G        C          F     G  C
I never said a word I knew the boys had talked her silent

          F                         G         C
She had a look on her face like she hated the world
       F                     G     C
But it wasn't the look of an angry girl
    F                        G      C           F      G  C
She looked like a woman that no one could catch crying

I was nothin to her, she was too pretty for me
        C                 Am
I was a dirtbag she was a jaded queen
Fmaj7                    G
She moved east and I stuck around
            C
She was the last good thing left in this town

            G               F
She was the last good thing left in this town
            C
She was the last good thing left in this town
G              F
She moved east and I stuck around
            C
She was the last good thing left in this town

  F                  G        C
I started working my father's shop
         F                   G         C
I'd just waste his money and watch the clock
        F                    G           C           F      G  C
I got a house on the highway filled with cracks and silence

          F                           G         C
I've been waiting for years I've been lookin in mirrors
          F                  G        C
I've been dreamin of ways to run from here
          F                G        C               F      G  C
I've been lookin inside myself for somethin I'm not findin

     Fmaj7                    G
Well every now and then she comes back around
      C                      Am
And I see her sometimes when I go out
       Fmaj7               G
I just smile and nod and I hide in the crowd
            C
She was the last good thing left in this town

            G               F

I remember being young no, I didn't have a clue
         G
That the ones I looked up to were just as confused
  C
I remember knowing everything would be alright
  Am
I wish I felt younger than I feel tonight
  G
I remember knowing everything would be alright

I wish I felt younger than I feel tonight
