Verse 1:
                B                                  Emaj7
I thought that mom and dad were ‘sposed to last forever
            Abm7                      Gb   
Like they promised at the altar in Alabama
           B                                   Emaj7
They were young, in love, and didn’t know any better
           Abm7                                Gb   
Yeah they planned to started a family there together
 
Pre-chorus:
Emaj7                       Gb   
Things they changed when you walked away
     Abm7              Gb          Emaj7
You left me wondering if you ever cared
Emaj7                   Gb   
I wish you stayed but I’ll be okay
        Abm7                   Gb            Emaj7
Cause I learned from you that life’s not always fair
 
Chorus:
B
I’ve been getting flashbacks
Emaj7                           B
Of hearing you fight behind the door
B
Know you’ll never call back
Emaj7                     Abm7
I don’t even miss you anymore
 

Abm7                   Gb   
Cause i’ve been doing fine
Gb                  B
Without you in my life
B
I’ve been getting flashbacks
Emaj7
I’ve been getting flashbacks
 
Verse 2:
B                                Emaj7
Driving down the highway to the school yard
          Abm7                                 Gb   
And you’d tell me stories ‘bout when you were young
    B                            Emaj7
You used to be my hero, then you put up your guard
  Abm7           Gb                Emaj7
I used to be so proud to be your son
 
Pre-chorus:

Things they changed when you walked away
     Abm7          Gb            Emaj7
It’s funny how the table’s gone and turned
Emaj7                Gb   
From 4 to 3 - when we go out to eat
   Abm7              Gb           Emaj7
And momma’s sitting by herself again
 
Chorus:
B
I’ve been getting flashbacks
Emaj7                           B
Of hearing you fight behind the door
B
Know you’ll never call back
Emaj7                     Abm7
I don’t even miss you anymore
 

Abm7                   Gb   
Cause i’ve been doing fine
Gb                  B
Without you in my life
B
I’ve been getting flashbacks
Emaj7
I’ve been getting flashbacks
 
Bridge:
Abm7 Gb    Emaj7
Now I know
    Abm7              Gb              Emaj7
How not to treat the loved ones I outgrow
Abm7 Gb    Emaj7
Take me home
  Abm7                Gb         Emaj7
Before we got caught in the undertow
 
Chorus:
B
I’ve been getting flashbacks
Emaj7                           B
Of hearing you fight behind the door
B
Know you’ll never call back
Emaj7                     Abm7
I don’t even miss you anymore
 

Abm7                   Gb   
Cause i’ve been doing fine
Gb                  B
Without you in my life
B
I’ve been getting flashbacks
Emaj7
I’ve been getting flashbacks
