I heard the door slam, and I couldn't tell
Was it just the wind, or was she mad again? (aww hell)
She's gettin in her car. I hollar "Baby, is there something wrong?"
Thought i heard her say something sounding like "i'm gone".
But these days gone can mean so many things.

Chorus:
There's gone for good, and there's good and gone
And there's gone with the long before it
I wish she'd been just a little more clear.
Well, there's gone for the day and gone for the night
And gone for the rest of your dod' gone life.
Is it a whiskey night, or just a couple beers?
I mean what kinda' gone are we talkin' 'bout here?

Well, it's gettin' dark out, she ain't back yet
Ain't called home, turned off the phone. (aww man)
Ha, this might not be good. I woulda' stopped her when she went to leave
But it didn't call 'cause I didn't really think what I'm thinkin' now.
I'm still not sure what gone is all about.

Chorus:
Cause there's gone for good, and there's good and gone

And there's gone with the long before it
I wish she'd been just a little more clear.
Well, there's gone for the day and gone for the night
And gone for the rest of your dod' gone life
Is it whiskey noghtor just a couple beers?
I mean what I kinda' gone are we talkin' 'bout here?

Is it the kinda' gone where she's at her moms?
Coolin' down, she'll come around
Or the kind that says you had your chance
And she ain't comin' back.

Chorus:
Well, there's gone for good, and there's good and gone
And there's gone with the long before it
I wish she'd been just a little more clear.
Well, there's gone for the day and gone for the night
And gone for the rest of your dod' gone life
Is it a whiskey night or just a couple beers?
I mean what I kinda' gone are we talkin' 'bout,
What kinda' gone are we talkin' 'bout,
What kinda' gone are we talkin' 'bout here?
What kinda' gone.

Well he was sitting by me, at the beach front bar
He seem pretty tore up so I bought him a beer and we lit up a couple Cuban cigars
Well a couple beers in we was gettin' profound
He said "A guy like me likes the simple things that I...I can wrap my head around"
I didnt know where he was going but I began to understand
When he stood up on his stool like a fool and started holerin' at the band:

[Chorus:]
"So play me something about drinkin', one about cheatin', a few about losin', lyin' and a-leavin'
Something where somebody did somebody wrong, and play it all night long
But dont play me no lo oh oh ove song
Dont play me no love song."

He said "Wait a minute man, I know who you are
Aint...aint you that fella on the tv in a cowboy hat always playing guitar"
I said "Yeah that's me"
I thought "Boy, there goes that"
He didnt want a cd or a picture of me autographed, no ?

[Chorus:]
Just play me something about drinkin', one about cheatin', a few about losin', lyin' and a-leavin'
Something where somebody did somebody wrong, and play it all night long
But dont play me no lo oh oh ove song
Dont play me no love song.

No gonna last forever, smilin', dancin', laughin'.
Hey let me hear about how it really happened.

Play me something about drinkin', one about cheatin', a few about losin', lyin' and a-leavin'
Something where somebody did somebody wrong,

Play me something about drinkin', one about cheatin', a few about losin', lyin' and a-leavin'
Something where somebody did somebody wrong, Oh she done me wrong.
But dont play me no lo oh oh ove song
Dont play me no lo oh oh ove song. [x3]

Guess who's back in town
Stompin' around in my old stompin' ground
Too much time away, I'm back to stay
But I ain't settlin' down
Tonight we'll burn it down
Let's tear the roof off of this place
Tell everyone you know
They'll see a lot more of my face

Chorus:
It's good to be here
Long time no see dear
But I had to give it a go
Took the show on the road
Doin' it everybody's way but my own
Good to be home
Been gone away too long
Stickin' to my guns,makin' a good run
Takin' the right track
Hey ya'll, it's good to be back

Welcome everyone
I've just begun the second half of the show
The nitty-gritty of the city wasn't pretty
But it taught me some things I didn't know
I swear that I'm not through
Too much to do before the end
And the best place to get started
Is right here with all of my friends

((Repeat Chorus))

I'm stone-cold on a roll
No one gonna tell me no
Anybody wanna god
Just grab a hold and say yeah, yeah
yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah

((Repeat Chorus))

Stickin' to my guns,makin' a good run
Takin' the right track
Hey ya'll, it's good to be back
Guess who's back in town
Stompin' around

. . .


i know you said when i left
i'd regret every word, every breathe, every step, every minute without you
go do what you have to
i know i said you were wrong i'd move on
it was only a matter of time, til i'd make it without you
but this wasn't about you
i said i needed space, a change of place to go out and live my life

[chorus]
i don't wanna live without you anymore
and what i wouldn't give to get us back to the way it was before
i admit i was wrong all along now you're gone with all that i'd been living for
i don't wanna live without you, anymore

for a couple of nights i was fine
i was high off the wine and the lights and my new found freedom, that i thought i needed

but that cold lonely room that i headed home to, it felt like a tomb
i just stared at the ceiling, what an empty feeling
and baby i, apologize, and tell me its not too late

[chorus]
i don't wanna live without you anymore
and what i wouldn't give to get us back to the way it was before
i admit, i was wrong, all along now you're gone with all that i'd been living for
i don't wanna live without you, anymore

baby, i don't wanna live without you anymore
and what i wouldn't give to get us back to the way it was before
i admit, i was wrong, all along no you're gone with all that i'd been living for
i don't wanna live without you, anymore

no, i don't wanna live without you, anymore

. . .


yeah, one of these days i'm gonna write you off
have this tattoo removed once and for all
wake up smiling in another life without you taking up all the space in my mind
yeah, that's just a dream i'm living in
i walked out the door and then

[chorus]
can't even watch a sunset, listen to a song
cause when i think i got you lit, WRONG
no matter how hard i try, to turn it off
you keep going on and on
you're never ever gone
you're never ever gone

when i think i can fool myself for awhile
i try to call up a friend, but when i start to dial
there's a number tingling in my finger tips
i say your name, i didn't mean to, it just kinda slipped
i just laguhed it off, like i dont care but who am i kidding i swear

[chorus]

can't even watch a sunset, listen to a song
cause when i think i got you lit, WRONG
no matter how hard i try, to turn it off
you keep going on and on
you're never ever gone
you're never ever gone

girl, you're never ever gone

[chorus]
can't eve watch a sunset, listen to a song
cause when i think i got you lit, WRONG WRONG
no matter how hard i try, to turn it off
you keep going on and on
you're never ever..

are you ever gonna leave me alone?
you're never ever gone
no, you're never ever gone
never ever gone
never ever gone

. . .


How do I love you, let me count the ways, I could go on for days
You keep on giving me a reason to stay lost in you
You fill me up with passion and still I never lose the hunger
If it isn't one thing, Baby it's another

(Chorus)
One minute it's your kiss the next it is your smile
There's no end to the ways you drive me wild
The perfume that you wear, your dress slit up to there
The way your run your fingers through my hair
When it comes to love, girl you've got me covered
If it isn't one thing, Baby it's another

You always find a way to make me strong when my strength is gone
With just a word or two you always know how to stir my soul
You're my shoulder and my shelter, my best friend and my lover
If it isn't one thing, Baby it's another

(Chorus)
One minute it's your kiss the next it is your smile
There's no end to the ways you drive me wild
The perfume that you wear, your dress slit up to there
The way your run your fingers through my hair
When it comes to love, girl you've got me covered
If it isn't one thing, Baby it's another

When it comes to love, girl you've got me covered
If it isn't one thing, Baby it's another
(One minute it's your kiss, the next it is your smile)
Baby it's another
(The perfume that you wear, your dress slit up to there)
How do I love you? Let me count the ways, yeah
Oh, I could go on for days
You keep on giving me a reason to stay lost in you
You always find a way to make me stronger

. . .


Remember how time used to drag
The summer couldn't get here fast enough
You made A's and B's, I was C's and D's
Your daddy hated me, Cause you were into me
Nobody'd ever be good enough
For his little girl

Had a fast car, had a hard head
Didn't give a damn what he said
I was gonna do, what I was born to do
No cold stare, no cussing
Nobody, no nothin's gonna keep me from lovin' you

Looks like your daddy was the easy part
Yeah, how could we have known how hard it'd be
Just tryin' to stay in love, I thought I'd be tough
We did some growin' up

Watched some friends give up
Life's thrown it all at us
But here we stand

Got a long road, mountains up ahead
Don't give a damn what the world says
I'm gonna do what I was born to do
No turnin' no runnin' nobody, no nothin's
Gonna keep me from lovin' you

Gotta long road, mountains up ahead
I don't give a damn what the world says
I'm gonna do what I was born to do
No turnin' no runnin' nobody, no nothin's
gonna keep me from lovin' you

keep me from lovin' you

. . .


Flip flops and bottle tops strewn across his hotel room
What a night, what a party what a place; Cancun
Got your purdy little head on my sun burnt chest
girl we’re wasting the day away
and it sure feels right with you right by my side
and I barely even know your name

Baby your deep blue eyes, and yours golden Tropicana tan
and the taste wine on your sweet lips sure did me in
never felt like this from just one kiss
never been in such a big old mess
till I saw you in the moonlight dancing in that little sundress

The band was grooving had everybody movin to the rhythm of a reggae tune
all the people all the faces all I saw was you
Now I’m wrapped in your arms and I never wanna leave this below the border love affair
there’s a plane taking off with an empty seat and I don’t even care

Baby your deep blue eyes, and yours golden Tropicana tan
and the taste wine on your sweet lips sure did me in
never felt like this from just one kiss
never been in such a big old mess
till I saw you in the moonlight dancing in that little sundress

Ain’t it crazy how I found you in a world full of girls
girl what did you do?

Baby your deep blue eyes, and yours golden Tropicana tan
and the taste wine on your sweet lips sure did me in
I never felt like this from just one kiss
never been in such a big old mess
till I saw you in the moonlight dancing in that little sundress

Na na na na
na na na na
Na na na na na na na (x2)

. . .


I took all my pictures of you and I,
Threw them all away.
I drank down that bottle of wine said that we,
Swore we would save.
For some special occasion,
Some big moment somewhere down the line.
Tonight I'm celebrating,
The first day of the rest of my life.

{Chorus}
Like a storm,
Like a train,
Like the seasons when they change.
Like the dark of night does every day at dawn.
Like the air,
That I breathe after it rose out of me.
It goes off to find another home.
My heart move on.

I put a for sale sign on my car and I,
Parked it outside.
'Cause that backseat reminds me of our,
Very first time.
I dont need any memories,
Hanging around this old place.
Sturring up that stuff in me,
That will only get in my way.

{Chorus}

Like the years,
Like the past,
Once its gone it dont come back.
Just like you when I woke up and you were gone.
Like the air,
That I breathe after it rose out of me.
It goes off to find another home.
My heart move on.

. . .


Now I know how Merle Haggard felt when he sang the words “Mama Tried”
And I lived those teenage Friday nights with “a pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight.”
And that summer Becky broke my heart, Alabama sang “Old Flame Burning.”
Well, I’ve danced with George Strait, drank with George Jones
My life’s been a country song

Chorus:
It’s all about falling down and getting back up
Yeah, good times and hard luck
True love and amazing grace
Working all week for a back ache
Raisin’ cane on Friday nights
Sunday church to set it right
They can write it on my stone
My life’s been a country song.

Now I know how Paycheck felt when told his boss to take his job and shove it
And I’ve had the girl that made me say “I like it, I love it, I want some more of it.”
And I’ll always remember just where I was “when the world stopped turning”
Through the good and the bad, the right and the wrong
My life’s been a country song

CHORUS

It’s been the words when I couldn’t find ‘em; a friend when I’ve been alone
It’s been a toast to the things remembered; the strength for moving on

CHORUS

Oh, my life’s been a country song

. . .


[Verse 1]
I'm a rock of solid stone
And this place I'm in is not my home
I feel the wind rushing by
It see's the world why can't I?
I'm so good at standing still
If you don't have me nothin' will

[Chorus]
Change me tonight
Don't be afraid
If you have to break me
Change me now
Into anything you need
Baby I want to believe
Your love can save me
Change me

[Verse 2]
I've been lost for so long
But what I had is almost gone
There's so much more I could be
So work your hands into me
I know exactly who I am
I'll just stay here unless you can

[Chorus]
Change me tonight
Don't be afraid
If you have to break me
Change me now
Into anything you need
Baby I want to believe
Your love can save me
Change me

Baby just make me believe
Your love can save me

[Chorus]
Oh - change me tonight
Don't be afraid
If you have to break me
Change me now
Into anything you need
Baby just make me believe
Your love can save me
Change me

I'm a rock of solid stone
This place I'm in is not my home
