Verse 1
E A
I was in love with your beauty
E A
From the day you walked my way.
E A
Oh, how I wish that was enough to
E B7 E
Have made me want to stay.
E A
See, I'm as true as I try to be,
E A
And I must say my girl,
E A
I tried the best to give to you
E B7 E
All of the truest in the world.
E A
But, when I left your house that morning
E A
in that ragged Thunderbird,
E A
I tried so hard to fight the voices
E B7 E
From the devils that I heard.
E A
See, there's a highway to the right of us
E A
I took a year ago,
E A
And since a year ago can't drive past
E B7 E
Without turning down that road.
Chorus 1
(Strum E chord)
G C G C
And I knew it, I never should have turned the wheel.
G C G C
And I knew it, the voices calling me weren't real.
G C G C
I knew it, listen to the song they sing.
G C G G C G
I knew I was wrong, and I knew I was wrong.

Verse 2
E
E A
So, give me a try at describing
E A
Just how difficult it is,
E A
When you kind of love two girls
E B7 E
To figure out which one you miss.
E A
Stumble away from your stairway
E A
With your perfume on my clothes.
E A
Well, I kind of loved two girls
E B7 E
But, now I kind of lost them both.
Chorus 2
E
G C G C
And I knew it, I never should have turned the wheel.
G C G C
And I knew it, the voices calling me weren't real.
G C G C

G C G G C G
I knew I was wrong, and I knew I was wrong.
(done a capella in the original)
E A
And if I could gather up the damage
E A
That I've rendered in my life,
E A
Place it on a scale and weigh against
E B7 E
The damage done that night.
E
Then it'd be safe to say
A E A
The weight of all I did and didn't do
E A
Would surly float against the lightest wrong
E B7 E
I ever did to you.
