Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][Am][C]

[Verse 1]
She was [G]do
ing sixty in [C]a thirty-five
I I hit [Csus2]the lights and pulled her [G]over
When I reached the window
of [C]the driver [Csus2]side
There was [C]blood from her mouth,
[G]dry on her shoulder
I've never had much patience
for [C]guys that [Csus2]hit[C]
[Csus2]For more [C]than jus[Csus2]t obvious r[G]easons
I asked if she wanted me
to [C]take [Csus2]him in
She [C]laughed it [Am]off l[C]ike lemo[G]nade

[Verse 2]
[C]When you're in love,
you can be [G]blinded by your own heart
You'll [Em]bend your own truth,
so twisted up you could [Asus4]jus tify [Am]sin
And when [C]people in love are [D]desperate enough
to abandon [Asus4]their dre[Am]ams
People do [C]desper[D] ate things
[G][C]

[Verse 3]
I've been [G]taking lunch
breaks at [C]her work
When the restaurant ain't too [G]crowded
[Bm]She knows [G]me and my wife got a[C] little girl
We don't talk too much [Em]about [G]it
The other night she met me way
[C]out [Csus2]west[C][Csus2]
Thing[C]s went further than
they should [G]have
When she undid the buttons of [C]her dress
I didn't stop her, but I [G]could have

[Verse 4]
[C]When you're in love,
you can be blinded [G]by your own heart
[D]You'll [Em]bend your own truth,
so twisted up you could [Am]jus tify sin
But when [C]people in love are [D]desperate
enough to aban[Asus4]don their dream[Am]s
People do [C]desper[D] ate things[G]
[C]

[Verse 5]
I [G]know where he drinks most [C]every night
[G]It's our [C]local hero [G]sports bar
I've got him cuffed and
sweat[D]ing [C]cold[Ab]
[D]In the back of [C]my pat[G]rol car
You forget how dark the
canyon [D]gets[C][C#m]
[C]It's a real uneasy [G]feeling
I've never had much
patience for [C]guys who hit
For more than just [G]obvious reasons
[C]When

[Verse 6]
you're in love,
you can be blinded by [G]your own heart
You'll bend [Em]your own truth,
so twisted up you could jus[Am]tify sin
But when [C]people in love [D]are desperate
enough to abandon their [Am]dreams
People do [C]desper[D] ate things

[Outro 1]
[G][C][G][C]
