[Intro]
AShe got her last cheque, took the apron off her neck
AHung it up, grabbed her stuff
AHeaded out to the truck
DShe fiGnally Dhad enoughA  
[Verse 1]
AShe took a black top down to the truck stop
ABought a map, ball cap, bag of Fritos in her lap
DPush had Gcome Dto shovAe
[Chorus]
EmOooo  Gshe finDally understooAd
EmOooo yGou gottDa get while the getting’s gAood

AOn the very same day, couple hundred miles away
AGuy gets a mixed text from the crazy psycho ex

[Intro]

She got her last cheque, took the apron off her neck

Hung it up, grabbed her stuff

Headed out to the truck

D G D A

She finally had enough

[Verse 1]

She took a black top down to the truck stop

Bought a map, ball cap, bag of Fritos in her lap

D G D A

Push had come to shove

[Chorus]

Em G D A

Oooo she finally understood

Em G D A

Oooo you gotta get while the getting’s good

[Verse 2]

On the very same day, couple hundred miles away

Guy gets a mixed text from the crazy psycho ex

D G D A

She said I’m coming back

(Oh lord have mercy)

[Verse 3]

Grabbed his boots, grabbed his socks

Wishing he had changed the locks

Running through the neighbours yard

Hits the sprinkler goes down hard

D G D A

Praying he gets out of line

[Chorus]

Em G D A

Oooo I guess he understood

Em G D A

Oooo you gotta get while the getting’s good

[Lead]

A Em G D A

[Bridge]

When you feel those four walls, start to getting too small

Cash it in, roll it in, make like the prairie wind

[Chorus]

Em G D A

Oooo I guess they understood

Em G D A

Oooo you gotta get while the getting’s good

Em G D A

Oooo I guess they understood

Em G D A

Oooo you gotta get while the getting’s good
