Nobody In His Right Mind

Tom: D

D             A                 Bm             Bm A
I burn with desire each time my heart fans the fire
        G                              D    A
To that old flame that burns inside of me
D                A               Bm        Bm A
She cried when I left her, now I cry to forget her
        G                           A
Oh, how foolish I was to ever wanna leave

       D                    Bm                  G
'Cause nobody in his right mind would've left her
D           Bm           G     A
I had to be crazy to say goodbye
D             Bm                  G
Nobody in his right mind would've left her
        G                A               D      Bm  G   A
Even my heart was smart enough to stay behind


D                 A       Bm          Bm A
I still carry her picture, I wish her well
          G                              D    A
with that new love I know she's found by now
     D              A              Bm          Bm A
Each night finds me dreaming, each day I spend thinking
           G                   A
How much I wish she was still around

[Chorus]
        G               A                D     Bm   G   A
Even my heart was smart enough to stay behind
