Verse 1:
D
If I called you, would you listen
             G               D
Or would you hang up, that old phone
     D              A 
If I told you, that I need you
      G                    D
That I could not stand to be alone
                D  	  	    A
Cause I've been thinking, about you lately
          G                  D
I've been dreaming, about you girl
 	D                A
Since I left you, there in Tulsa 
        G                  D                     
Where I messed up, your whole world

Chorus 1:
D 	  	 G  	      D
Now I'm doing my time, hitting that bottle
A 	  	  	  	 D
Living my life not thinking about tomorrow
D 	        G                         D  Bm
If I said I was through, and coming home to stay
 	  A                               G      A   D
Would you tell me that it's over and I lost the game I played

Verse 2
D
It's cold dark and lonely
D 	           A
When the lights go down
 	     G           	   	 D   	  	  	  	 
I pack up my things, and head to another town

D 	  	  	  	       A
Just a few more miles, til I reach the end
 	  	   G   	       A
Then I'll start all over, and try this again

Chorus 2:
D 	  	   G  	      D
Cause I'm doing my time, hitting that bottle
A 	  	  	  	  D
Living my life not thinking about tomorrow
D 	        G                         D   Bm
If I said I was through, and coming home to stay
 	  A                                G      A    D
Would you tell me that it's over and I lost the game I played
