Chorus:
A
I thought the wreck was over
A D
I thought the fire was out
E7
I thought the storm had passed and I was safe at last
E7 A
I thought the wreck was over but here she comes again
A
Livin with her liked to killed me
A D
Living without her might as well
E
At first I thought Id died and gone to Heaven
E
In fact I had lived and gone to Hell
Chorus
They’ll tell you to expect the unexpected
Nobody ever tells you where its hid
I can’t tell you how many times she left me
I lost count the very first time that she did
Bridge:
E7
I thought I’s movin fast and gettin stronger
E7
I thought the coast is clearer
E7
Till I looked into the mirror
E7
And saw a set of skid marks gettin longer
Chorus
Solo
I thought the storm had passed and I was safe at last
I thought the wreck was over but here she comes again
I thought the wreck was over
