INTRO:   F    C    G(2x)
I never Frealized how much Cshe brought to the Gtable
'Til I went to Fsit my cup of cCoffee where the Gtable used to be
No Fcouch, no bed, no Cheirloom antique Gcradle
No more Fhope for one day startin' that famiGly
Bet she's Amgainin' fast on GMemphis, with a Amtrailer load in Ftow
Who says you can't take it Gwith you when you Cgo
CHORUS:
She got aFway with everyCthing that I had Ggoin'
And she got aFway before I could Cmake it all alGright
And I got a Fway with leavin' Cwhat needs said unGspoken
Hell I even Fblew the chance I Chad to say goodGbye
Yeah she Amtook her heart and Gtook off down Fthat road
And they say you can't take it Gwith you when you go
INTRO
Good news is ain't much here left for packin
Bad news is she left behind a million memories
All the echoes of her cryin' lovin' and laughin'
Left me with nothin' left to do but leave
That old house is in the rearview, ridin' shotgun is her ghost
Who says you can't take it with you when you go
CHORUS
SOLO:   F    G    F  G  
AmClosin' in on GDallas now is the Ambest Love I've ever Fknown
And they say you can't take it Gwith you when you go
INTRO
