Em7 	   D 	              Cadd9
Sun is settin' on this haunted town
Em7 	  	  	  D 	                  Cadd9
But the sun is not the only thing that feels like goin' down
Em7 	     D 	         Cadd9
Said she be gone by tonight
Em7 	  	  	       D
Gotta make this love last it's gettin' dark real fast

And she's the only thing on my mind
D
On my mind…

Em7 	  	  D 	  	       Cadd9
On this nine mile, nine mile stretch of road 
Em7 	  	      D 	  	     Cadd9
Will I make it in time, heaven only knows
Em7 	  	  	         D
Well it hurts so bad, my hearts so full of shame
      Cadd9
And I know that I'm the only one to blame on this

Em7 	  	   D 	  	 Cadd9
Can't imagine her walkin' out that door
Em7 	           D 	  	    Cadd9
What if she means what she said this time
Em7 	  	        D 	  	  	  	          Cadd9
Well the moon is shinin' bright on the exit sign for the county line
D
County line…
