[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][Em][D][C]
[D][G]
There I [D]was at the bus stop begging

[Verse 1]
[Em]
you just to stay
[D]Can we wor[C]k this out,
baby we can [D]work this out
[G]A dust trail from a Greyhound
headed [Em]for the West Coast
[D]As I wat[C]ch you leave, it's
getting [D]hard to breathe

[Verse 2]
No this ain't [C]how it was supposed [D]to be
While [C]you're out chasing
all [Em]your [C]dreams
[D]Tell me where does that leave [G]me

[Verse 3]
What about the plans
that you left behind
[C]The little white house by the railway line
The [D]one we picked out
We even put the [Am]payment [G]down[C][D]
[G]What about the promise that you made
To stay [C]with me till your dying day
Said you'd [D]never go away
Are they just [Am]things [G]that [C]people say

[Verse 4]
[G]Are [D]the[Em]y jus[D]t things b[C]aby[D]

[Verse 5]
[G]The preacher [D]stopped by the
house last Tuesday
[Em]Asked if I was fine
We [D]sat and [C]talked a while
He tried to [D]make me smile
But [G]it's so hard to show my
face round lately
[Em]In this small town
[D]I guess they hea[C]rd the news
'Bout [D]me and you
It's three [C]a.m. and I can't sleep at [D]all
I [C]wonder where [Em]you are t[C]onight and
[D]do I [Bm]ever [D]cross your [G]mind

[Verse 6]
What about the plans
that you left behind
[C]The little white house by the railway line
The [D]one we picked out
We even put the [Am]payment [G]down[C][D]
[G]What about the promise that you made
To stay [C]with me till your dying day
Said you'd [D]never go away
Are they just [Am]things [G]that [C]people [G]say

[Verse 7]
Well my mom[C]ma won't stop crying
She [D]wonders what went wrong
Could I have [C]loved a little deeper
Or did I [D]hold on too [G]strong
[C][D][Am][G][D][E]

[Verse 8]
[A]What about the plans
that you left behind
[D]The little white house by the railway line
The [E]one we picked out
We even put the [Bm]pay [A]ment d[D]own[E]
[A]What about the promise that you made
To stay [D]with me till your dying day
Said you'd [E]never go away
Are they just [Bm]things [A]that [D]people [A]say[E]

[Verse 9]
[F#m]Are th[E]ey just th[D]ings baby
[A][Bm][E]
