Intro
Verse 1
I can hear that highway calling
As I watch the sunrise crawling across her shoulder
This is usually goodbye
And yet those words I just can't find here as I hold her
Option: (Strum once) D
She's like no other women
Option: (Strum once) E
That I have ever known before
And it ain't me to see the morning sun
From this side of the door
Chorus
Why aInt I running, Why aint I gone
How does she hold me Without holding on
In love or a fight, she's stronger than strong
Somethings not right if there aint nothing wrong
Its got me wondering,why aint I running
Why aint I gone
Verse 2
All those worlds I left behind me
Praying they would never find me and my freedom
But if they stood right here beside me
They would never recognize me for all that she's done
Once happiness was only
Whenever I was on my own
So now why do I feel lonely
Any time that I'm alone
REPEAT CHORUS
(ONE MEASURE EACH)
Solo
No, they've never built a wall that high
Or made a chain that strong
And God ain't never made a place
I felt like I belong
REPEAT CHORUS
