Back There Again
Blake Shelton
(C) This old Buick's like a needle on a compass
(Am) Pointed due west
(F) I remember her smile like June sunflowers
(C) And the look of her body as she slipped out of (F) that dress
(Dm7) God, I'm such a (F) mess
(C) Never a mornin' person, but that (Am) girl's still in bed
(F) The sheets are tanglin' - her little arm is danglin'
(C) The last dream from her pretty (Dm7) head
I told her I was (F) leavin'
She didn't believe the words I (F) said
I ain't ever (C) goin'
I ain't ever (Am) goin'
I ain't ever (F) goin'
Back there, a(C)gain
She'll put on her makeup and drink from her tea cup
Glance at that silver frame
See, I took our picture and then it'll hit her
She'll cry out with pain
Maybe, whisper my name
Repeat Chorus
No one's gonna (C) make me
Nothing's gonna (Am) take me
I ain't ever (F) goin'
Back there, a(C)gain
Now, (Bb) don't blame her mama - for makin' me promise
Don't (C) come around here, no more
She said, (Bb) "maybe your life's gone to hell
But, that's a (Dm7) tour of duty she didn't sign up (F) for"
When you (C) can't save yourself, you save somebody else
Maybe (Am) that's how you survive
I'm (F) runnin' away so she don't have to see
A life in (C) slow-motion suicide
You throw in the towl - they call you a coward
Tell ya - (Am) fight, don't cut and run
(F) I ain't no hero, but the truth is I know
(Dm7) It's the bravest thing I've ever (F) done
The hardest part is knowing what we (Dm7) could have
Shoud have be(F)come
I ain't ever (C) goin'
I ain't ever (Am) goin'
I ain't ever (F) goin'
(PAUSE......)
No one's gonna (C) make me
Nothing's gonna (Am) take me
I ain't ever (F) goin'
(Dm7) Goin'
To (F) break her heart, a(C)gain
