"I was"

Neal McCoy

Intro: GCF, GCF

G C F C

I drove up from a rivertown, it was late September early October.

G C F

C

Thought maybe I could clear my mind and see the leaves turn red.

G C

The tunes up and the windows down

F C

On the skyline drive when she flagged me over

G C

"Hallelujah what a beautiful morning"

F C

Where the first words that she said

A F C F

Her eyes were blue as the sky on a perfect blue ridge day

A F C F

She said, "I could use a lift if you're going my way," and........

Chorus:

A Asus4 A F

I was............ I was headed south, I was headed out

C F C G

headed nowhere or anywhere we wanted to go

A F C F

The road stretched out in front of us

C F A

And she was ready to run it just like I was.

G C

Told me she was twenty two

F C

and she'd just broken out of William and Mary

G C F

C

Another summer under daddy's roof was all that she could do

G C

Her boyfriend, she cut him loose

F C

Too cold for a wedding in January

G C F C

She said, "thats enough about me now tell me about you"

A F C F

I rambled on about broken hearts and staying too long

A F C F

She said, "Im sorry, but you were right to move on" and.......

(repeat chorus)

A F C F

Aint it funny how everything hinges on a twist of fate

A F C F

She held my hand and said "Arent you amazed" and......

(repeat chorus)
