Here is a story about a boy and a girl

She woke up one morning felt alone in this world

Despite the love for her, he couldn't keep her from leaving again

She had to do it.

She cried in a night

He brought her flowers in the daytime

She tried and she tried to forget the past and all her past crimes

Despite the love for her, he couldn't keep her from leaving again

She had to do it.

How could you shoot a good man down?

Leave with a mourning

Brokenhearted on the ground

Like the others before him

A burden heavy as a rock

ain't nobody gonna stop her

Go ahead and walk alone

and regret it some-else-where

She cried in a night

He brought her flowers in the daytime

He gave up the fight while she was out comitting new crimes

Despite the love for her, he couldn't keep her from leaving again

She had to do it.

How could you shoot a good man down?

Leave with a mourning

Brokenhearted on the ground

Like the others before him

A burden heavy as a rock

ain't nobody gonna stop her

Go ahead and walk alone

and regret it some-else-where

E:-12~~---12-----------------------------12------------------------------|

A burden heavy as a rock

ain't nobody gonna stop her

Go ahead and walk alone

and regret it some-else-where

How could she leave without mourning?

I'm like the others before me.
