E

She didn't see me see her cryin

F#

As she sat there by the window

A E Bb

On a southbound greyhound leavin' town,

E

The hardest thing I've ever done,

F

Was to walk away and let that woman go

A Bb

Cause she came close to turnin' me around,

E

Now I know she missed her Mama,

F#

Cause thats the kind of life she comes from,

A E Bb

Ain't no kind of life I'm ever gonna have,

E

She said she'd call me from the station,

F#

But I'll be gone before she get there,

A Bb

And I'll see her every time I'm lookin' back,

A E A Bb

E

Chorus: Heaven knows I ain't no angel, And I don't always do the

right thing,

A F# A

Bb A F#

And right now I know that she don't understand but

I'll sleep better knowin,

A F#

A Bb E

The only thing I ever loved is on that bus to

Birmingham

Tonight I'll slip back in the shadows,

And I'll sip a glass of whiskey

And I'll try to keep from whisperin' her name,

Buth there's some highways I ain't driven

And there's some towns that I ain't lived in,

And there's some times that I can't get out of the rain

And Lord I can't bare to break

Another promise that I made her

So I made out like I wanted her to go

And I'm better off believin'

Thats she's better off without me,

'Cause I don't want her to see me do her wrong

Repeat Chorus

A E Bb E

Ending: Heaven knows I don't always do the right thing

A E A Bb

And right now I know she don't understand

A E

But I'll sleep better knowin

F#

The only thing I ever loved,

A Bb A Bb E

Is on that bus to Birmingham
