Intro: D D/F# G Asus A
D D/F# G
I guess she caught that plane early this morning
Bm A G
'cause her I've-decided-to-stay call never came
D D/F# G
and right about now lord she's nearly back to Asheville
Em Asus A
I'm staring out at a south Georgia rain
G Asus A
wondering if I'll ever touch her again
Bm A
If there were only miles between us
G
I'd be there in a good day's drive
Bm A
but the last time I held her
G Asus A
I saw the distance in her eyes
G A
she once crossed the Blue Ridge Mountains
Bm A G
and swore that she'd be mine
D/F# G Asus A D D/F# G Asus A
but she never brought her heart across the Carolina line
She always said this place felt just like home
but there were memories she never did unpack
and even in my arms holding me close
she never let go of the past
or the one who kept calling her back
Chorus:
