[Verse 1]
E
Send out some invitations
E
Gonna have me a big celebration
A                                      E
I'm giving up everything I thought was mine
E
If your love for him is stronger
F#m
Let's not drag it out much longer
     A             B                E
I'm ahead if I can quit while I'm behind


[Verse 2]
E
Ain't got much left to hold on to
E
It ain't worth what I might go through
A                                                 E
And this old heart of mine can't try much more of that
E
Drinking coffee at my learning
F#m
Your love won't be returning
     A             B                E
I'm ahead if I can quit while I'm behind


[Chorus]
         A             B                E
I'll be ahead if I can quit while I'm behind
         A             B                E
I'll be ahead if I can quit while I'm behind


[Bridge]
    A
You know I'd pull a gun on the way I feel
                                 E
If I thought my heartaches would run
    A
And if I put cotton wool in my ears long ago
                                     E
I wouldn't know the life that I know now
     A             B                E
I'm ahead if I can quit whilе I'm behind

[Verse 3]
E
I'd write a song about something rеal funny
     A                      E
If I thought somebody might laugh
E
I'd write a song about a whole lot of money
     A                           E
If I thought I could get me some cash
A
I'd write a song about the trip I'm on
                           E
I wish I'd never taken L-U-V
                      B
Love sure got me on a big fat bummer
       A                     E
And it sure 'nuff working on me

[Chorus]
         A             B                E
And I'm ahead if I can quit while I'm behind
         A             B                E
I'll be ahead if I can quit while I'm behind
