Verse 1:
D
Well there’s two sides
A
To my tail lights
G
And they both don’t work right
D
And there’s a motel
A
On the highway
G
And a hundred miles out-side
D
Of Nashville
A
And I still don’t
G
Know when I can come home
D
But I promised
A
I would try so
G
I might be a coward
Chorus:
D
Well the first cut
A
Was the deepest
G
But it healed up whole
D
And the next one
A
Was a soft touch
G
But it bled out below
D
We were a team
A
Till you're toxic
G G
I mean you talk xxxx, often
D A
But once upon a time
G
We were in lovе
Verse 2:
D
Well there’s two sidеs
A
To a fair fight
G
And you’re the third man out
D
I was hopeful
A
With a slow hand
G
And I got gunned down
D
Well you asked me
A
If I could grow up
G
But I don’t know why
D
For I don’t know much
A
I’m a palm frond
G
Dying on the front porch
Chorus:
D
Well the first cut
A
Was the deepest
G
But it healed up whole
D
And the last one
A
Was a clean hit
G
But I bled out below
D
We were a team
A
'till you're toxic
G
I mean you talk xxxx, often
G A
But once upon a time
G
We were in love
Verse 3:
D
Know there’s two lanes
A
On a highway
G
And I passed you by
D
Thought about calling
A
But I deleted your number
G
And we both know why
D
Truth is when I met you
Bm
Well you know you made me cry
D
And I knew you for a second
Bm
You were gone in flashing lights
D
But since I had one lost one
Bm
Oh, at least I said goodbye
D
What’s done is done
Bm
It’s not enough to describe
D
When I met you I regret you
If it makes for the longest ride
Bm
If I let you stay in my head
Then it’s overnight
D Bm
You like when I sing our songs about us
D Bm
Well you like when I sing our songs about us in the rain
D
I exorcise us baby
Bm
I’m working out the pain
D
Well I knew you had a heart
Bm
But God I knew just how you were
D
If I'd have known you I'd have cloned you
Bm
Just to see you hurt
Verse 5:
D
Well there’s two sides
A
To a timeline
G
And they’ve all got the same arc
D
When I'm next to you
A
I can wave to you
G
Because we’re miles apart
D
Y'know you wrote me
A
'bout you changed things
G
But baby you know me
D A
I don’t read a damn thing
G
Don’t ever read a damn thing
Chorus:
D
Well the first cut
A
Was the deepest
G
But it healed up whole
D
And the last one
A
Was a clean hit
G
But I bled out below
D
We were a team
A
'till you're toxic
G G
I mean you talk xxxx, often

But once upon a time
G
We were in love
D
Well there’s two lanes
A
On a highway
G
And I passed you by
