[F#]
[B]
[B] [F#]
[B] [E]
As I drive [F#] on your early gates [E] I realize [B] [E] that I just can't stay.
All [B] those [C#] fountains, they [F#] kept you locked inside.
And [E] in the [B] truth, from my slighted eye, [F#] I came to you.
With a half-open heart, [E] dreams upon my back, illusions of a [B] brand new start.
Nashville, [F#] can't I carry the load?
[B] Is it my fault I can't reap what I sow?
Nashville, did you [F#] give me half a chance at [B] your southern style and [E] your hidden [B] dance?
Wave, you [F#] dance away, you [E] dance away.
[B] All the voices, [F#] they whisper through my walls.
They talk of falling [B] fast, they say I'm losing it all.
[B] They say I'm running blind [F#] to a love of my own.
But [E] I'll be walking proud, I'm seeing what I still [B]
own.
[F#] I fell on my knees to kiss your lamb, but [E] you were so far down I can't even see the stamp.
[B] Nashville, you forgot [F#] the human race.
You [B] still have no mind, the [E] colors hide the face.
Nashville, I'd [F#] like to know your fate.
[B] I'd like to stay a while, but [E] I've seen you lower [C#] at stake today.
[B] I've seen [F#] them take.
Honey, I swear [E] I've seen them take.
[B]
All right, [F#]
[B] [E]
[B] [F#]
[E] [B] [E] [C#]
I'm leaving.
[F#] I got all these debts to pay.
You know [E] we all have our dues.
I'll [B] pay in some other place.
[B] I, I never asked [F#] that you pay me back.
We [E] all arrived [C#] at more.
I left less than I had.
[F#] Your town is made for people passing through.
[E] Last chance for a cause.
[B] I thought I knew, [B] but Nashville, you tell me what [F#] you are gonna do with all your son style.
It'll never pull you through.
Nashville, I [F#] can't place no blame, but if you [E] forget my [B] face, I'll never call your [B] name again.
No, never [F#] again.
No, no, [E] never again.
On [F#] my knees to kiss your lamb, but [E] you are so far down and I can't even see the stand.
[B] And Nashville, you [F#] forgot the human race.
[B] You steal half of my color's hot face.
Nashville, I'd [F#] like to know your fate.
[B] I'd like to stay a while, but I've seen you lower at stake today.
I've [F#] seen them [F#] take.
Well, I swear [B] I've seen them beg.
I'm [B] running away.
I'm running [F#] away.
I'm running, [B] [E] running, I'm running home.
