Babys Gotten Good At Goodbye

Tom: D

G        D          G                 D
What a rotten day this turned out to be
G                       A                   D
I still can't believe she'd leave so easily
          G                              A
She just got all her things, threw 'em into a pile
            D                    G
Then she loaded her car and set out for a while
     D                     A                   G
She done this before but this time she didn't cry

[Chorus]
                D
That's why I'm sittin' on the front steps
 A
staring down the road
 G                                   D
Wondering if she'll come back, this time I don't know
     G                     D
And after she packed when she looked back
 A                          D
there were no tears in her eyes
     G                              D               A
And that's got me worried thinking maybe my baby's gotten good at
     D
goodbye

[Verse 2]
          D            G                   D
All the times before she'd break down and cry
G                                A                    D
She'd make her threats but her heart wasn't set on goodbye
          G                      A
She just wanted me to hear what she had to say
     D                      G
Now I'm lost for words and she went away
     D                  A                    G
She may not return for this time she didn't cry

[Chorus]
                D
That's why I'm sittin' on the front steps
 A
staring down the road
 G                                   D
Wondering if she'll come back, this time I don't know
     G                     D
And after she packed when she looked back
 A                          D
there were no tears in her eyes
     G                              D               A
And that's got me worried thinking maybe my baby's gotten good at
    D
goodbye

                D
That's why I'm sittin' on the front steps
 A
staring down the road
 G                                   D
Wondering if she'll come back, this time I don't know
     G                     D
And after she packed when she looked back
 A                          D
there were no tears in her eyes
     G                              D               A
And that's got me worried thinking maybe my baby's gotten good at
     D  Dsus4   Dsus2  Dsus4   D
goodbye
