Capo I
We’ve Gbeen through a Clot, you and Emme that’s for Dcertain
GBoth of us Chad expecEmtations to Dfill
But Emsometimes the Cdoing outGdoes the preDtending
And Ganything Cleft is just Emtired and Dstill D  D  D  
So GI hit the Croad with my Emboot heels Dburning
GLeaving you tChere with Emall you could Dsay
EmMake no Cmistake this is Gnot about Dwinning
It’s Gmore just the Cgoing and a Emprice that I’ll DpaDyD  D  
So Emthink of me Cfondly wheGnever you’re Dthinking
I Emcan’t help my Cwandering, it’s Gwhat I do Dbest
ReEmmember the Cgood times, Ghold them forDever
Let Ctime take Dcare of the GreGst

G  C G D D D D
Well I Gguess you can Ctell that I’m Emnot a great Dwriter
My Gletters to Cyou have been Emspotty at Dbest
And I Emgather you Cknow I’m Gno longer Din Kansas
That Gship had set Csail the last Emtime that we Dmet
EmPart of the Ctraveling is Gleaving beDhind things
Didn’t Emsay it was Ceasy, Gnever is DkinDd	D(oDhh-ohh-ohh…)

Capo I

G C Em D

We’ve been through a lot, you and me that’s for certain

G C Em D

Both of us had expectations to fill

Em C G D

But sometimes the doing outdoes the pretending

G C Em D D D D

And anything left is just tired and still

G C Em D

So I hit the road with my boot heels burning

G C Em D

Leaving you there with all you could say

Em C G D

Make no mistake this is not about winning

G C Em D D D D

It’s more just the going and a price that I’ll pay

Em C G D

So think of me fondly whenever you’re thinking

Em C G D

I can’t help my wandering, it’s what I do best

Em C G D

Remember the good times, hold them forever

C D G G

Let time take care of the rest

G C G D Dsus4 D

G C G D D D D

G C Em D

Well I guess you can tell that I’m not a great writer

G C Em D

My letters to you have been spotty at best

Em C G D

And I gather you know I’m no longer in Kansas

G C Em D

That ship had set sail the last time that we met

Em C G D

Part of the traveling is leaving behind things

Em C G D D D D

Didn’t say it was easy, never is kind (ohh-ohh-ohh…)

[BREAK]

G C G D Dsus4 D

G C G D D D D

G C Em D

A lot has been happening since the last time I saw you

G C Em D

I haven’t had time to give you a call

Em C G D

And it’s true what they say about too little hours

G C Em D

With too much to do don’t do nothing at all

Em C G D

Think of me fondly whenever you’re thinking

Em C G D

I can’t help my wandering, it’s what I do best

Em C G D

Remember the good times, hold them forever

C D G G

Let time take care of the rest

Em C G D

Remember the good times, hold them forever

C D G G

Let time take care of the rest

G C G D Dsus4 D
