[Verse]
GHe was glued to the TV
When she asked him for the keys
She said "I'm Agoing to the market,
is there anything you need?"
The first quarGter was underway
He neveAr missed a play
GShe pulled out of the driveway
Took a left at the light
Didn't stAop at the market
Just drove right by
GAcross the railroad tracks
She nevAer once looked back
[Chorus]
GShe went out for cigarettes
And just kept drivinDg on
He doesn't even know Git yet
BmShe's gone
As far away as she can Gget
APast the point of Bmno rDegrEet
She went out for cGigarettes
AAnd just kept driving on
[Verse]
GHalftime is over
The sun is sinking low
It's alAmost time for supper
There's nothing on the stove
He looks uGp from his easy chair
He just notAiced she's not there
GShe made a stop at the bank
Took out some cash
Now she's raAcing down the highway
On a full tank of gas
GAs fast as she can go
To whAere, she doesn't know
[Chorus]
GShe went out for cigarettes
And just kept drivinDg on
He doesn't even know Git yet
BmShe's gone
As far away as she can Gget
APast the point of Bmno rDegrEet
She went out for cGigarettes
AAnd just kept drivBming DonE  
She went out for cGigaretAtes

[Intro]

A D A D A G A

[Verse]

He was glued to the TV

When she asked him for the keys

She said "I'm going to the market,

is there anything you need?"

The first quarter was underway

He never missed a play

She pulled out of the driveway

Took a left at the light

Didn't stop at the market

Just drove right by

Across the railroad tracks

She never once looked back

[Chorus]

She went out for cigarettes

And just kept driving on

He doesn't even know it yet

She's gone

As far away as she can get

A Bm D E

Past the point of no regret

She went out for cigarettes

And just kept driving on

[Verse]

Halftime is over

The sun is sinking low

It's almost time for supper

There's nothing on the stove

He looks up from his easy chair

He just noticed she's not there

She made a stop at the bank

Took out some cash

Now she's racing down the highway

On a full tank of gas

As fast as she can go

To where, she doesn't know

[Chorus]

She went out for cigarettes

And just kept driving on

He doesn't even know it yet

She's gone

As far away as she can get

A Bm D E

Past the point of no regret

She went out for cigarettes

A Bm D E

And just kept driving on

G A

She went out for cigarettes

G A G

And drove on
