CHORUS:
    A                                     
Ooh I can't go on livin' in this state of mind
     E                                  A
It's stay and go crazy or leave it all behind
                                           D
One way or another, I'm a-gonna cross that line
E                                     A
I can't go on livin' in this state of mind

        E                                               A
There's no way to avoid her, livin' in this tiny Texas town
       E                                                            A
So I'm packin' up my broken heart, leavin' and I pray I don't break down
      D                                                      E      E7
Now I really love the Lonestar, but I can't stand seein' her around


CHORUS


SOLO

    E                                                A
I'm upside Amarillo, I'm feelin' better every mile I roll
E                                                  A
When I hit Van Rio, that's as far as a memory will go
    D                                          E     E7
Now runnin' from a woman might sound foolish I know


CHORUS

N/C                                           D
Ooh one way or another I'm a-gonna cross that line
E                                     A
I can't go on livin' in this state of mind
   E                                     A
No I can't go on livin' in this state of mind
