Verse 1:
G7
She left me by the side of the road
C7
Cryin'

She said that her heart had gone cold

I'm dying
G7
If I said I could live without her
       C7
I'd be lyin'

Chorus 1:
G7
How do you recognize
    C7
The sadness that was in her sighs
G7
There was more to her good-byes

Then could ever be seen with naked eyes

Verse 2:
G7
She left me by the side of the road
C7
Broken
G7
Words that shattered what I believed
     C7
Were spoken
G7
All the careless affection she gave
      C7
Was a token

Chorus 2:
G7
How do you rectify
     C7
When all her truths were really lies
G7
It didn't matter how hard I tried
C7                   G7
All my destiny has died

Verse 3:
G7
She left me by the side of the road
C7
tattered
G7
My dreams, my truths, my hopes
     C7
Were scattered
G7
The bonds we made, the promises shared
         C7
It never mattered

Chorus 3:
G7
How do you classify
     C7
That there's no way to satisfy
G7
The one who left me mystified
C7                           G7 C7
Now I guess it's time to fly
G7                        C7
Now I guess it's time to fly
