A writer's retreat in Kingston Springs, Tennessee.
[Gb] And Jennifer [N] come up with an idea to write a song called Eve.
[E] And I had [Em] no idea what [Abm] that meant, but she said, what about a song [Eb] that talks about you?
So I said somebody and then [N] praying.
You know, you're in [Am] Eve, and it doesn't look good.
I [B] should really write an idea for a song.
So us three started sitting down.
[E] We didn't [A] finish that weekend, but we're [Am] finishing it up.
And if you're somebody that [E] travels very much, or if [Am] you're not,
if you ever came home and found [Ab] the person that you're with in bed [Am] with somebody else,
[G] chances are [B] you'd probably try to kill them.
I'm not going to [A] kill them people, but of course.
I'm just saying what I would do.
It's the kind of thing. [G] That's logical.
Maybe I'm thinking [Am] of doing something.
[E] So anyway, I wrote a song about [D] it.
It goes like that.
[A] [F]
[G] [A]
[G] [A] [C]
[G] [A]
[G] [Am] I got home from Wichita [F] several days before I [G] thought,
didn't recognize the truck parked [Am] in my drive.
[G] [A] I knew he hit my heart with [G] love.
Busted through the bedroom door.
Guess I must have caught you [D] by surprise.
[Am] By the time he got his buckle [F] on, I hit the safe and grabbed my [G] gun.
She's baby with tears [Am] in her eyes.
Screaming, baby, let him [F] go.
You don't want that on your [G] soul.
I said, a man is going to [Am] die tonight.
I'm using tail lights, straight [C] out of crow flies.
[G] Just a country [Am]
road.
I got a shotgun.
[C] He's running shotgun.
[G] And we both get to [Am] do our own.
Cause I [F] know what you've done.
There's [G] only one way to get [Am] around me.
You better pray [F] that your pain [G] don't be [Am] mine to keep.
[F] [G]
[A] [G] [Am] It's blue past the county [F] line.
That middle person 95.
[G] Along you like a shadow [Am] mother for mother.
All you see is my [F] headlights.
I see the whites in your [G] eyes.
And that clear, clear in your [Am] rear view.
Go ahead and ride the [F] gas.
Don't think that you're living, [G] man.
Just come here and let me pass [Am] that man's crew.
Man, as far as I can [F] tell, we might both be left in [G] hell.
But your soul's [Am] hell on earth.
I'm using tail lights, straight [C] out of crow flies.
[G] Hunting just to stand a [Am] country road.
I got a shotgun.
He's [C] running shotgun.
And [G] we both get to do [Am] our own.
Son, I know what [F] you've done.
There's only [G] one way to get [Am] around me.
You better pray [F] that your pain [G] don't be [F] mine to keep.
[C]
[G] [Am]
[F] [C]
[G] [E] [A] I'm using tail lights, straight [C] out of crow flies.
[G] Hunting just to stand a country [A] road.
[G] I got [A] a shotgun.
He's running [Gb] [C] shotgun.
And [Gm] we both get to [Am] do our own.
Son, I know [F] what you've done.
There's [G] only one way to get [Am] around me.
You better pray [F] that your pain [G]
don't be mine to keep.
