[Intro]
F C G Am
 
 
[Verse 1}
F CI'm lit up like the fourth of July
G AmYou're out with one of your pretty guys
F CWho never worked a day in his life
G AmI've been on the grind stone tryna make it right
F CWith the songs and the money and God and my momma
G Am FThe signs say Go not to stop while the summer errodes into nothing
C GWe left something there on the table
 
 
[Chorus 1]
Am F CAnd fate just blew it away
G Am F CLike some ancient law that I must obey
G Am F CAnd I'm burning through the bottle while my mind draws a map of your face
G Am F C G AmGotta find my way back to that holy place
 
 
[Verse 2]
F CI was sweating in the Tennessee sun
G AmTen hour shifts out in Lebanon
F CI was lifting all day on that line
G AmTending a bar at the end of the night
F CThat old sky was crumblin' but I kept rumblin'
G Am F CThem girls meant nothing I was just running from the pain
 
 
[Chorus 2]
G Am F CYou and your pretty boys it's exactly the same
G Am F C
Let Em play and make pretend while my mind draws a map of your face
G Am F C G AmGotta find my way back to that holy place
 
 
[Bridge]
F CDo you think of me honey when all that money
G AmAin't enough just to make you smile
F CWell it's late September you can't remember
G AmThe summer that just passed you by
 
 
[Chorus 3]
F CBabe, ain't it strange
G Am F CI know it aint my fault but I'll take the blame
G Am F CAnd I'm burning through the bottle while my mind draws a map of your face
G Am F CGotta find my way back to that holy place
