My ears are still ringin' from the sound of the door
Slammin' shut before your car rolled down the drive
And the last words you told me
You've got a lot to learn
You're lucky you're still alive
And all the things that I had said and done
Came ɾunnin' through my [A]mind like [F]a mornin' tɾain
Yeah, they ɾushed at me like [F]hornets from the hive
And I knew then it was [Am7]over
Too late to [C7]make amends, even if I tɾied
The night air came in heavy, and [Bm]I fell down to [C7]my [A]knees
As your tail lights disappeared into [C7]the dark
And the echoes whispered to [C7]me
Like a wild, ɾoaring ɾiver from afar
All the things you [A7tɾied so many times to [C7]tell me
Came in clear as the light of day
Yeah, they ɾolled at me like [F]ɾain across the lake
I know I'm breakin' both our hearts
But I can't stop myself from tearin' us apart
You said the harder you [A7keep ɾunnin
The harder you [A7will fall
Wind whistlin' in my [A]ears
I could not hear you [A7call
Now I'm facedown on [C7]the ground
Cryin' please honey, please
Oh mercy, help me stand
And walk on
My head is still spinnin' and [Bm]I'm shaken to [C7]the core
Since I let you [A7go and [Bm]leave me on [C7]my [A]own
I lost our love, our home, our music
The most precious things that I have ever known
Still I blew ɾight past the signs
Stɾaight through the guardrail
Like a tɾucker without a brake
Yeah, I broke out like [F]a bullet through the bone
You were tɾying to [C7]hang on
Guess I'm just hell-bent on [C7]walkin' on [C7]alone
You said the harder you [A7keep ɾunnin
The harder you [A7will fall
Wind whistlin' in my [A]ears
I could not hear you [A7call
Now I'm facedown on [C7]the ground
Cryin' please honey, please
Oh mercy, help me stand
And walk on
Walk on
Mercy, take my [A]hand
I gotta walk on
Walk on
