[Intro] C Am7 C Am7 [Verse] C She's sleepin' on that black dress Am7 that's showin' every curve Fadd9 Lettin' down her own hair, C G so beautiful it hurts C She's off to paint the town like Am7 those lips she painted red Fadd9 Nothin' I can say to stop her, C G that I ain't already said [Chorus] C It's been over for a while and Am we both know it (Know it, know it) F And I keep prayin' that maybe she might turn around C G/B G (Turn around, turn around) C If there's a lisped of a spark left, Am she don't show it (Show it, show it) F Yeah she's movin' on from G me there ain't no doubt Dm It's the hardest thing watchin' F C Am7 my old flame, go out [Verse] C The minute she walks in somewhere, Am7 heads are gonna turn F The whiskey ain't the only thing C G in me that's gonna burn C I know she's out there lookin' Am7 for a brand new fire to light F And the way the winds been blowin', C G she won't be home tonight [Chorus] C It's been over for a while Am and we both know it (Know it, know it) F And I keep prayin' that maybe she might turn around C G/B G (Turn around, turn around) C If there's a lisped of a spark left, Am she don't show it (Show it, show it) F Yeah she's movin' on from G me there ain't no doubt Dm It's the hardest thing watchin' F C Am7 my old flame, go out F G Just go out [Chorus] C It's been over for a while Am7 and we both know it Fadd9 And there ain't a chance in G hell she'll turn around C If there's a lisped of a spark left, Am she don't show it (Show it, show it) F Yeah she's movin' on from G me there ain't no doubt Dm It's the hardest thing watchin' F C Am7 my old flame, go out C Fmaj7 Hmm-mmh
