It's why I moved to Nashville, why I almost left
G C D G
You made me feel alive, but you scared me half to death

Thought I couldn't hit that stage without you runnin' through my veins
G C
Now I sing the songs I always have
D G
But the meaning's bound to change
G C G
'Cause you took me high but you sure as hell brought me down
D G
We said goodbye but I'm gonna see you around
C Em
And to tell the truth, I thought I never would
C D G C
But it's time I finally put you down for good
C D G
'Cause you've taken me as far as you could
