[Verse 1]

         E              A
I was in love with your beauty
         E                 A
From the day you walked my way.
          E             A
Oh, how I wish that was enough to
     E       B7      E
Have made me want to stay.

         E              A
See, I'm as true as I try to be,
    E             A
And I must say my girl,
  E                 A
I tried the best to give to you
           E      B7     E
All of the truest in the world.

             E              A
But, when I left your house that morning
        E             A
in that ragged Thunderbird,
           E                 A
I tried so hard to fight the voices
         E      B7     E
From the devils that I heard.

               E              A
See, there's a highway to the right of us
  E           A
I took a year ago,
            E              A
And since a year ago can't drive past
        E       B7        E
Without turning down that road.


[Chorus 1]
(Strum E chord)

    G C          G                 C
And I knew it, I never should have turned the wheel.
    G C            G              C
And I knew it, the voices calling me weren't real.
G C        G             C
I knew it, listen to the song they sing.
G C          G          G C          G
I knew I was wrong, and I knew I was wrong.

[Verse 2]

E
              E      A
So, give me a try at describing
         E            A
Just how difficult it is,
         E                A
When you kind of love two girls
          E         B7      E
To figure out which one you miss.

        E              A
Stumble away from your stairway
          E             A
With your perfume on my clothes.
        E                 A
Well, I kind of loved two girls
           E       B7        E
But, now I kind of lost them both.


[Chorus 2]

E

    G C          G                 C
And I knew it, I never should have turned the wheel.
    G C            G              C
And I knew it, the voices calling me weren't real.
G C        G             C
I knew it, listen to the song they sing.
G C          G          G C          G
I knew I was wrong, and I knew I was wrong.


(done a capella in the original)
               E             A
And if I could gather up the damage
          E              A
That I've rendered in my life,
         E              A
Place it on a scale and weigh against
    E      B7        E
The damage done that night.

             E
Then it'd be safe to say
    A               E              A
The weight of all I did and didn't do
            E                 A
Would surly float against the lightest wrong
  E    B7     E
I ever did to you.
