You're Eheading down a lonely road that Asomeday you'll reEgret
Go back you fool while you B7can
Your Edarling's heart is breaking but you Ahaven't lost her Eyet
Go back you B7fool while you Ecan
[Verse 2]
You Awonder around the honky tonks Eacting fancy free
So Ablinded by those tavern lights  Ethat you can't B7see
You Epassed the door to heaven in Asearch of paraEdise
Go back you fool take anB7other fool's adEvice

You're Estanding where I stood before so Ayoung and so misElead
Go back you fool while you B7can
When EI walked out and slammed the door I Awish someone had Esaid
Go back you B7fool while you Ecan
[Verse 4]
I Awouldn't want to tell you wrong I Ehope that you can see
If you Adon't believe in what I say  Ejust look at B7me
I Epassed the door to heaven in Asearch of paraEdise
Go back you fool,  B7take another fool's adEvice
