When You Go Lyrics

When You Go
Beathard/Heeney/Cannon-Goodman
INTRO: C Am G Bb F C
The yellin' and cussin' was different this time
That's when I started to pack
There's a place where two people can't change anymore
And that's right about where we were at
With my favorite CD's and a six-pack of beer
A duffel bag full of my clothes
I didn't come here with much, I'm even leavin' with less
Guess that's what you get when you go
Back when we met I thought she was for me
And she told me I was so her
Playin' that game of pleasin' each other
Ah it was so easy at first
Why when and where everything changed
At this point who cares and who knows
But the last thing I wanted was to carry this hate
But you can't make it stay when you go
BRIDGE:
The way that it was ain't the way that it is
We've come to that fork in the road
And it ain't about pride or who's wrong or who's right
There just comes a time when you know
That you'll be better off when you go
Got caught in a moment way too surreal
No I wasn't tryin' to stall
Just takin' my steps one at a time
Takin' in all the pictures on the wall
Well I walked in the kitchen, said I better leave
Kinda hopin' she might say don't
But she just took a deep drag off that Marlboro Light
And said shut the door behind ya when you go
Yeah she just took a deep drag off that Marlboro Light
And said shut that door behind ya when you go
