She never gave a reason for leaving
Just packed her things and said goodbye
I guess she just got tired of believing
E Esus E Esus E
Usually I m not left in this position
Most the time it's me who says goodbye
You never dropped a hint that you're going
Naturally it came as a surprise
Sittin in a run down dive in Austin
Anticipating pain from losing you
Well it hasn't hit me yet
It'll be here you can bet
I'm sitting here
Waitin on the blues
I hate to get advice when I don't ask it
It's what I m getting here tonight
The old man says cause I'm young I'm foolish
E Esus E Esus E
Said I should try to forget about you
I know that's not left for me to choose
Who knows you might come back but until you do
Guess I'll sit here waitin' on the blues
Sittin in a run-down dive in Austin
This old man s tellin me that I can't lose
But I guess he s wrong
Cause I already lost you
Oh I'm sitting here
Waitin on the blues
SOLO
Sittin in a run-down dive in Austin
You left me here with nothing left to lose
This delayed misery
You know it s damn near killing me
I can spend a lifetime waiting on the blues
I can spend a lifetime waiting on the blues
