the day after she?s gone
D F# Bm E
I?m gonna stay drunk, sleep for years, past dawn
maybe keep my mouth shut, when she returns the car
never ask that question, dangling from my heart
D F# G Gm D
I?m gonna stay drunk, the day after she?s gone
I?m gonna drive off, til the road ends narrow
sing in the dark, every damn sad song from that dashboard delco
lucky for the last time, else I might go wrong
I?m gonna drive off , the day after she?s gone
F# Bm D F#
when she walks by I can?t look
G A
cryin? ain?t doing me good
they?ve all given up on me, friends fallen apart
I act like it?s yesterday but it?s been, years since we talked
all these little things, mean a lot, shots and a dark bar
they all gave up on me, the day after she?s gone
the day after she?s gone
