F G C
I had everything in the palm of my hand
F G C
A lovin’ wife who made me feel like a man
F G C Am
She told me she’d love me till death do us part
Am F G C
She said that she meant it from the bottom of her heart
I guess she didn’t know the bottom was so deep
For now every night she cries herself to sleep
She thinks that we married, much too young
And now her love is gone and the heartache’s begun
F G C
I want my life back, back on the right track
F G C
The way it used to be when you were my girl
F G C Am
Lord I wish I could turn the page, back to those better days
Am F G C
Where you would always stay in my perfect world
Steel
Now every night I drink until I am stoned
It’s just too hard to face my empty home
Without her here my world’s at its end
And what I wouldn’t give to have her back home again
Chorus
