[Intro]
F C G F…………….
F C G F…………….
[Verse 1]
F CThere is concrete below me and a sky above so blue
G FI’m finally leaving Austin and I wish it was with you
F CI Am just a sickness and you seem to be the cure
G FHow much can a southern girl honestly endure?
F CRemember northwest mountains, they were snow-capped in June
G FYou were napping on my arms on a Sunday afternoon
F CBut babe, I’ve gotta heal myself from the things I’ve never felt
G FRepression is my heaven but I’d rather Go through hell
[Chorus]
AmIt’s ’bout time that I left Austin
G‘Bout time you settled down
FWith a man who doesn’t move as quick
CAs the trains rolling through town
Am‘Bout time that I face
GThe hard times I’ve let go
FIf love was just an ocean
CI would drown before I float
[Interlude]
Am G F C……………..
Am G F C……………..
F C G F……………..
[Verse 2]
F CYou remember getting drunk on the outskirts of this town
G FWhen I gave you all I had but it still let you down
F CEveryone I ever loved has either left or died
G FWish I was born with concrete shoes but I’m leaving tonight
[Chorus]
AmIt’s ’bout time that I left Austin
G‘Bout time you settled down
FWith a man who doesn’t move as quick
CAs the trains rolling through town
Am‘Bout time that I face
GThe hard times I’ve let go
FIf love was just an ocean
CI would drown before I float
[Post-Chorus]
Am G F CFloat………….
Am G F CFloat………….
[Bridge]
F CThere’s concrete below me and a sky above so blue
G FPeople ruin people, I don’t wanna ruin you
F CI Am just a sickness and you seem to be the cure
G FHow much can a southern girl honestly endure?
[Chorus]
AmAnd I’m finally gone from Austin
GYou finally settled down
FWith a man who didn’t move as quick
CAs the trains rolled through town
AmI finally had to face
GThe hard times I’ve let go
FIf loving you was an ocean
CI’d of drowned so you cold float
