NEVER GET AWAY FROM ME (for Waylon and Jessi) - Travis Tritt

INTRO: RIFF over - E B |F# |E B |F# |

F#

I was a real Casanova in my home town.

F#

Never really thought about settling down,

B A F#

That is until, you came around.

F#

Yeah, it-s been a few years but I remember it well.

F#

I was a rowdy no-gooder. You were hotter than hell.

B A F#

I spent all my time hot on your trail.

E B F#

You could-ve run to the mountains, could-a sailed across the deep blue sea.

E B F#

I knew from the start I couldn-t let you get away from me.

F#

Well, your mama and your daddy they didn-t approve.

F#

They told you I was trash and I was born to lose,

B A F#

But that didn-t faze me. I was gonna have you.

F#

So, I begged and I pleaded, something I-d never done,

F#

And sure as tomorrow has a rising sun

B A F#

There was no mistake. Honey, you were the one.

E B F#

You could-ve run to the mountains, could-a sailed across the deep blue sea.

E B F#

But one thing-s for sure you would never get away from me.

E B F#

The sweetest things in life take you by surprise,

E B C#

Like the heaven I see looking in your eyes.

D#m B F#

Though you weren-t sure how an outlaw-s love would be,

E B F#

I made up my mind not to let you get away from me.

RIFF

F#

As we get a little closer to our rocking chairs

F#

I think back on the good times that we have shared

B A F#

And how our love has grown down through the years.

F#

So, snuggle up to me, Baby, turn out the lights.

F#

There-s no where on this earth I-d rather be tonight

B A F#

Then lying in your arms holding you tight.

E B F#

As time roll-s by one thing-s still plain to see

E B F#

I-d have been a fool to let you get away from me.

E B F#

You could-ve run to the mountains, could-a sailed across the deep blue sea,

E B F#

But I-d have been a fool to let you get away from me.
