Lyrics
Won't Let Me Go
Saturday, September 23, 2006
Wade Farlowe
G D
Wasted moments lead to shattered daydreams
D G
Of a face, I used to know
G D
Empty bottles next to pounded ashtrays
D G
In a place, I used to go
Em C
I'm through with this kind of life
Em C
Along the way, I misplaced my wife
CG D G
But, my broken heart won't let me go
G D
Lightning flashes with the thunder rollin'
DG
On a night, when cold rains blow
GD
Empty gas tank and a worn out flat tire
D G
On a truck that used to roll
EmC
I'm through with these kinds of deals
Em C
Somehow, my feet has replaced my wheels
CG D G
But, my broken heart won't let me go
CDG
My broken heart won't let me go
C D G
It stays with me night and day
CD G Em
I can't get shed of this old broken heart
A7 DD7
Why did you treat me this-a-waaaaaaay
Break
G D
Can you hear that old train's whistle blowin'
DG
On a bridge where the river flows
G D
Can't get shed of this old broken heart
D G
Guess, it'll be with me when I go
EmC
I'm through with these kinds of thoughts
Em C
Leavin' my bags, and the things I bought
CG D G
But, my broken heart won't let me go
Em C
I'm through with this kind of place
Em C
Forget the day, I joined this rat race
CG D G
But, my broken heart won't let me go
