[Intro]
D* A* D Bm/G D/F# G/E
[Verse]
D* A*
Girl since you left me
D
Been trying to forget we
Bm/G D/F# G/E
Ever became what we were
D* A*
I poured some whiskey
D
On places you kissed me
Bm/G D/F# G/E
Tried to wash off all the hurt
G
Ain't nothin' workin'
A
I've ripped out the words in
D A G/E
A thousand old sad country songs
G/D A
But whenever I try to move on
[Chorus]
D* A* D
It's like tryin' to put a bandaid on a bullet hole
Bm/G D/F# G
Tryin' to tell a cowboy to slow down
D* A* D
It's like watching the way that the river runs
Bm/G D/F# G/E G/A
And then tellin' it to turn back around
Bm D/A
And I've had some strangers told people I hate ya
G D/F# G/E
But I just keep hittin' a wall
D* A* D
It's like tryin' to put a bandaid on a bullet hole
G A D
It just don't do me no good at all
[Post-Chorus Chords]
D Bm D Bm
[Verse]
D* A* Bm
If I was only, heart broke and lonely
Bm/G D/F# G/E
I'd head on back down to the bar
D* A* Bm Bm/A
Find me a companion, but you left a Canyon
Bm/G A D
Can nobody fill this hole
[Chorus]
D* A* D
And girl its like tryin' to put a bandaid on a bullet hole
Bm/G D/F# G
Tryin' to tell a cowboy to slow down
D* A* D
It's like watching the way that the river runs
Bm/G D/F# G/E G/A
And then tellin' it to turn back around
Bm D/A
And I've had some strangers told people I hate ya
G D/F# G/E
But I just keep hittin' a wall
D* A* D
It's like tryin' to put a bandaid on a bullet hole
G A D
It just don't do me no good at all
[Bridge]
G D G
No damn good, damn good, damn good at all
G
And baby tell me how ya did it
A
I just gotta know
G
And tell me what's your secret
A G/E
And how'd you let me go, so, easy
[Chorus]
D* A* D
Cause' girl its like tryin' to put a bandaid on a bullet hole
Bm/G D/F# G
Tryin' to tell a cowboy to slow down
D* A* D
It's like watching the way that the river runs
Bm/G D/F# G/E G/A
And then tellin' it to turn back around
Bm D/A
And I've had some strangers told people I hate ya
G D/F# G/E
But I just keep hittin' a wall
D* A* D
It's like tryin' to put a bandaid on a bullet hole
G A D
It just don't do me no good at all
D* A* D
It's like tryin' to put a bandaid on a bullet hole
G A D
It just don't do me no good at all

G D G
No damn good, damn good, damn good at all
