[Verse 1]

Six short months we went together,

E A

decided it should be forever.

A D

Two paychecks were better than one.

A diamond ring,

it was done.

Bought her a house like I said I would

E A

in a subdivided neighborhood.

A D

The fuse got short and the nights got long.

It was over, long gone

before I knew

I was headed to

[Chorus 1]

I'm goin' through the Big D and don't mean Dallas.

E A

I can't believe what the judge had to tell us.

A D

I got the jeep and she got the palace.

A E

I'm goin' through the Big D and don't mean Dallas.

[Verse 2]

Things like this are never final.

E A

I'm still payin' on the vinyl

it's multi-colored,

water proof.

It's a little bit tough to face my friends,

E A

the ones that said that I jumped

A D

in the river of love a little too soon.

That was August,

and this is June

and it's a different tune.

[Chorus 2]

I'm goin' through the Big D and don't mean Dallas.

E A

I can't believe what the judge had to tell us.

I got the jeep and she got the palace.

I'm goin' through the Big D and don't mean Dallas.
