I Was Gonna Leave Tomorrow Anyway

G  Dsus4  G  Dsus4

[Verse]

Em
She packed that Pontiac like a pack rat piled high with paper sacks
    G
Two quarts of oil, her calico cat, man I never seen a woman get so mad
Em
She caught me by surprise when goodbye rang into the night like a steel windchime
G                                                     D
Caught in a storm that was gettin' worse and she just grabbed her purse
  C                 D
I can't believe she said it first, 'cause

[Chorus]

G                                   G/F#
I was gonna leave tomorrow anyway
Em
I had my car all gassed up, everything was so in place
  F                                                                      C
I let her have her glory, let her think my heart would break and that's okay
      D                       G
I was gonna leave tomorrow anyway

[Intro]

Em                                                                                   G
I watched her taillights disappear, grabbed a beer, chugged it down so my eyes could clear
G
And fear appeared and suddenly silence was the only thing my heart could hear
Em                                                                      G
And this room is a tomb with empty walls, a broken broom, with marks of leavin' on the floor
                        D
Made by her shoes, like she knew what I was gonna do
        C                 D
Still I can't believe she left so soon

[Chorus]

[Solo]

[Bridge]

D                             C
I bet she's somewhere between Albuquerque, Amarillo
Em            G          C
Eatin' at our favorite cafe
  Am                          D
I wish I had the guts to call just so she could hear me say

[Chorus]

G                                      G/F#
Hey I was gonna leave tomorrow anyway
  Em
I had my car all gassed up, everything was so in place
  F                                                                      C
I let her have her glory, let her think my heart would break and that's okay
      D
I was gonna leave tomorrow
      D                       G
I was gonna leave tomorrow anyway, yeah
