VERSE:
      G
Old friend,
             D
It’s been awhile,
          A              Bm
I ain’t spoke to you in years,

     G
And often times,
           D
Boys from this town,
      A                  Bm
Put wheels down and disappear,

      G
Mrs. Cole asked about you
      D
Just three days back,
    A                   Bm
And I had no answer to give her,

   G                       D
I told her that you moved way out 
west,
               A              
To write some songs and grow a 
              Bm
little more bitter,

     G                     D
The kids talk about you around here
             A            Bm
Like you’re some kind of legend

   G                            
I wonder if they know a thousand 
  D
sunrises ago
          A               Bm  Bm
You were eager just like them.


CHORUS:
            G                      
But if you ever decide to bring 
   D
your pain and your pride
         A                    Bm
Back to this side of Oklahoma City,

               G
There’ll be a porch light on,
          D
From the post you leaned on
             A                  
Before you wound up on the wrong 
         Bm
side of pity,

     G                             
And often times I pray for you and 
 D
often times I don’t,
            A                      
Is it the goodbyes that haunt you 
       Bm
or the fear of new hellos,

     G                             
You won't stay for long 'cause you 
 D
won’t stop your running,
 A                         Bm
Wait for tomorrow until tomorrow’s 
not coming.

VERSE:
           G                    D
Heard you landed in Tulsa while he 
slipped away,
             A                     
Is that the reason your fleeing the
  Bm
 fields we hauled hay,

 G                     D
Heat this July or the dark last 
December,
 A                  Bm
Look in my eyes and you might 
remember,

 G                        D
Weed out in Norman, the Stillwater 
strip,
 A                      Bm        
Run far enough boy and you’re 
          Bm
bound to trip.

CHORUS:
            G                      
But if you ever decide to bring 
   D
your pain and your pride
         A                    Bm
Back to this side of Oklahoma City,

               G
There’ll be a porch light on,

 D
often times I don’t,
            A                      
Is it the goodbyes that haunt you 
       Bm
or the fear of new hellos,

     G                          D
You never stay long 'cause you won’t
 stop your running,
 A                         Bm
Wait for tomorrow until tomorrow’s 
not coming.
