(Verse 1)
She said (G)she was headed over to see her (C)mama

Walked out the (G)door swore every-(D)thing was gonna be alright (G)
But itfs been (D)four days and three nights of (C)whiskey
And I ainft (D)heard a word from her and thatfs what (C)gets me
(Chorus)
So tell me (G) how (D) far (C) does a goodbye (G) go (D) (C)
Is it (G)down to a corner bar (D) or outta (C)town in a getaway car
If itfs (G)on a map this cowboyfs (D)gotta know (C)
Is it a (Em)couple miles away (D) cominf up the road
