Intro B/G B/F# A/F# G/E G/C
Verse:
B/G B/F# A/F# G/E G/C
I'm tired, twisted, barely breathing, buried in the dark. It could have been.
B/G B/F# A/F# G/E G/C
Don't be concerned, it's just the power of a breaking heart.
How good am I hiding it?
B/G
Look, I've got some bad intentions.
B/F# A/F#
Guilty as fucking charged.
G/E G/C
Still standing stable, more than able 'cause I know who you are.
B/G B/F# A/F# G/E
I know the birthdays, anniversaries, all the first days I missed.
G/C
I regret them all.
But now I know this:
Chorus
C
I know that God exists.
D
I held her in my arms.
G Em
I never knew I was able to ever feel this strong.
G
Take me off your worry list.
D
It'll be better that way.
G Em
I'm really fine and there's nothing we haven't talked about.
G D
So, take me off your worry list I said, "Throw it away."
G
This is what my life is about.
I might have been gone but I never walked out.
Intro played one more time.
Verse:
B/G B/F# A/F#
I've taken a thousand red eyes to change your point of view.
G/E G/C
What kind of man would take the trust you break and still follow through?
B/G
Cause I'm standin' right here.
B/F# A/F#
And you may not show up.
G/E G/C
This same gate 14 where, honestly, I'm just sick of calling your bluff.
B/G B/F# A/F#
And it's just embarrassing, that I nearly threw up
G/E G/C
And I'm trying hard to change the things I always screw up.
B/G B/F# A/F# G/E
And at the top of my list, this visitation's no relationship.
G/C
But I gotta make the best of it.
Cause I know:
Chorus
C
I know that God exists.
D
I held her in my arms.
G Em
I never knew I was able to ever feel this strong.
G
Take me off your worry list.
D
It'll be better that way.
G Em
And I'm doin' fine and I've got plenty of friends around.
C
Take me off your worry list.
D
Just throw it away.
G Em
Well, it's time to stand up on my own for her.
C D
Cause I'm packing it up, and I'm comin' today.
Bridge:
G
I couldn't wait to finally pick my family up.
G/F#
Everything is quiet and covered in snow.
Em
There's something wrong here...
C
Nobody's at home.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
C D
Now, I'm back in the driver's seat.
Heading back home.
G Em
Yeah, back to Texas on my own.

C D
I'm packing it up, and I'm comin' today.
G
This is what my story's about.
Em C
I might have been gone but I never walked out.
D
I'm packin' it up, and I'm comin' today.
G
This is what your story's about.
G
My pretty little girl, can you figure it out?
G
If it helps to know so there is no doubt,
Just listen to the stories.
Not everything is glorious.
G
Some hurt, some love, some shout.
I fought the world and I lost that bout.
G
And you are what my album's about.
I might have been gone, but I never walked out.
