 BIf I scream at the top of my lungsB/A#  
 Do you tG#mhink my friends'll hear me back home
 And the C#manswers on the tip of my tongue
 And I won't fE5ind it if I spend tonight alone
[Verse]
 BThere's a light inside my car that won't turn onB/A#  
 No mG#matter how hard I shut both the doors
 Ain't it fC#munny how we just can't seem to shake
 All the pE5eople we don't wanna be no more
[Verse]
 BMet an old friend at a college baseball gameB/A#  
 And we tG#malked just like we will when we are old
 And we wore C#msmiles that we earned upon our face
 And we lE5eft when the sunset made us too cold
[Chorus]
 BOh no, did I sBay B/A#too mG#much?E5  
 I don't wB/A#anna seem like I Bwas in B/A#a ruG#mshE5  
 Some day sB/A#oon, the sBun B/A#will shC#mine
 But until thEen, I'll take my pB/A#lace in lBine
[Verse]
 BGot a ticket back to Nashville on a planeB/A#  
 But I tG#mhink that I would probably rather drive
 Fill the C#mcar with smoke and coffee cups
 Oh, as mE5uch as it might take to stay alive
[Verse]
 BTore a page off of the legal pad
 I fB/A#ound lG#mions still and dead upon the floor
 And I wC#mrote it so it wouldn't be so sad
 I hope somE5e day that it means so much more
[Chorus]
 BOh no, did I sBay B/A#too mG#much?E5
