Вступление
* - One strum
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Met her in a bar
Oh, how I remember that day
Beer was flowing off tap
And I was the drunkest there I'd say
Pretty little woman who left me high and dry
Who took my ass home because I was in no state to drive
[Verse 2]
Back at her place
I found a six string there
She said, do you play
I said, only if you care
We played all damn night until we found the morning sun
She went off to work and I almost died from all the rum
[Chorus]
But if I was a dreamer and little bit better with words
I wouldn't be running away from that damn girl
And if I weren't a cowboy then I probably would've stayed
But these roads here look so damn good to me
G G*
Nearly meant to be
[Break]
[Verse 3]
Met her back at school
I thought that she was great
Every time I talked to her
She had a smile across her face
Dunno why, why she'd ever love me so
But just of being country I had to let her go
[Verse 4]
Days rolled into night
And my heart still thought of her
Never gonna forgive myself
For what I did to her
She's nearly married now, I shouldn't have to feel so bad
She's got that same damn smile, the same damn one I had
[Chorus]
But if I was a dreamer and little bit better with words
I wouldn't be running away from that damn girl
And if I weren't a cowboy then I probably would've stayed
But these roads here look so damn good to me
G G*
Nearly meant to be
[Break]
D*
[Verse 5]
D*
I have made mistakes
G* A* D*
I'm sure that we all have
D*
One day I'll feel
G* A* D*
What those married men have
D* G* D
A white picket fence and some kids left for the loving
A letter to those special girls who made me feel like something
[Chorus]
But if I was a dreamer and little bit better with words
I wouldn't be running away from that damn girl
And if I weren't a cowboy then I probably would've stayed
But these roads here look so damn good to me
G*
Nearly meant to be
[Outro]
