[F#]
[E]
I was in love [A] with your beauty from the day you [A] walked my way.
Oh [E] how I wish [A] that was enough to [Em] and made me [E] want to stay.
See I'm as true [A] as I try [E] to be and I must [A] say my girl,
I [E] tried the best [A] to give to you [F#] all of the truest in the world.
But [E] when I left [A] your house that morning [E] in that ragged [A] Thunderbird,
[E] I cried so hard to fight the voices from the devils that I heard.
See there's a highway [A] to the right of [E] us I took a year [A] ago,
and [E] since a year [A] ago can drive past [E] without turning down that road.
[G]
And [C] I knew it, I never should turn the [G] wheel.
And [C] I knew it, the voices calling me weren't real.
I knew it, they'll send us on [G] they say.
And [C] I knew [G] I was wrong.
Yes I did.
And [C] I knew I [G] was wrong.
[B] [E]
[F#]
[E]
[D] So give [E] me a try [A] at describing [E] just how difficult [A] it is
when you kind of love two girls [Em] to figure out which one you [F#] miss.
Stumble [E] away from your stairway with your perfume on my clothes.
Well I kind [A] of loved two girls but [Em] now I've kind of [E] lost them both.
[G] And I [C] knew it, I never should turn the [G] wheel.
And [C] I knew it, the voices calling [G] me weren't real.
[C] I knew it, they'll send us on [G] [C] they say.
And I knew I [G] was wrong.
Yes I did.
And I knew [D] I was wrong.
[N] And if I could gather up the damage that I've rendered in my life,
place it on a scale and weigh against the damage done that night,
then it'd be safe to say the weight of all I didn't do would surely
float against the lightest [B] wrong I ever did [E] to you.
