[Verse 1]
G C D7
Tonight it's so cold the rain is fallin'
G C D7
But it's still not as cold as your love for me
G
That's why I'm walkin' down this highway
C
And a diesel goin' my way
G D G
Will take me far from you and you'll be free
[Chorus]
C G
There was nothin' left but leavin' for us in Tulsa
D G
But then again the same was true out in A
C
Seems like troubles always find us
G C
So I broke the tie that binds us
G C G D G
There was nothin' left but leavin' anyway
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
G C D7
We tried to find our dreams in New Mexico
G C D7
But the answers just weren't there in Santa Fe
G
And we could blame it all on Texas
C
But the problem now with us is
G D G
We never had what we thought anyway
[Chorus]
C G
There was nothin' left but leavin' any longer
D G
And I finally found the strength to walk away
C
Tell the kids their daddy loves them
G C
They'll understand I'm thinkin' of them
G C G D G
There was nothin' left but leavin' anyway
[Tag]
C G C G D G
There was nothin' left but leavin' anyway
