Am C
She turned 21 in April,
Am G
You know her birthday's the same as mine
Am C
When we first met she'd never left Texas
Am G
She was young and so confused
Am C
She got caught up in the bright lights
Am G
The whiskey, pills and all those late nights
Am C
From the mountain where we standing,
Am D
She fell so far that she could not see
G D
And I was angry when I woke up
C D
When I found out that we broke up
G D C
She packed her bags, she was gone before the sun
G D
She left a letter on the table,
C D
Said catch me if you're able
G D C
But I'll be moving fast and I'm still hard to find
Am
So I wont call you and I wont follow
C
Cause the truth is hard to swallow
Am D G
Said I'd pick you up, but I'd only let you down.
Am C
Heard from a friend you moved back to Corpus
Am G
You always loved that ocean air
Am C
I know that you know that I'm headed down that way
Am G
Dont worry cause I wont call
Am C
It'd be strange for me to see you
Am D
You know there's so much left unsaid
Am D Em
Said I'd pick you up but I'd only let you down
(Solo) -- Chorus Chord Progression
Am C
Wrote you a letter while in Corpus
Am G
It took everything I had
Am C
Went down to the pier and looked out across that bay
Am D
Took that letter then I watched it burn away
(Chorus)
G D Em
Said I'd pick you up but I'd only let you down
