  Em                 A
I should've took you dancin
         Em           A               D 
A little candle light romancin', with roses
          Em              A 
But I was high upon a bar stool
Em           A                      D   
I was such a blind fool, now I know it
D/C#      B7                    A                 G
You won't believe how much I've changed since you left
        Em                          A 
It took loosin' you, for me to find myself

Em                            A
Oh, I wish that you could see me
Em                       A                    D
Steady hands without the whiskey, you'd be so proud
Em                       A
Got that job down at the factory
Em                   A                       D 
A brand new suit for Sunday, I'm in church now
D/C#          B7               A        G
It's been one year since I sat behind a bar
    Em                          A    
I went by the junk-yard, they've still got our car

        D
I still see you on your knees
G
Beggin' me not to drive
   A
But I took away the keys
D
And made you climb inside
    D
An' I'd take your place in this field of stone
G
If I only had the power
Em
Look what it took 
G                 A         D
For me to finally bring you flowers
   D
Oh, I'd take your place in this field of stone
G
If I only had the power
Em
Look what it took 
G                 A         D
For me to finally bring you flowers
     Em  
Just look what it took 
G                 A         D
For me to finally bring you flowers
