 It broke my heart to leave the city

  ([G/f#])

I mean it broke what wasn't broken there already

 Thought of all my great reasons for leaving

Now I can't think of any

 it's true, it was a hard time that I come through

  [G/f#]

it's made me thankful for the blues

- - - - [G/f#]

 Half my life spent on a highway

 Half my life I didn't choose

 And I have seen the North Star

 shining in the freight yard and I knew

 it was a hard time that it had come through

  [G/f#]

It's made him thankful for the blues

- - - - [G/f#]

 It broke my heart to know you waited

  ([G/f#])

I had so many things to do

It's true as far as a lot of stuff

you could have had a little bit of luck

 You just called and just hung it up

 One of us has had enough

 It's true as far as a lot of stuff

you could have had a little bit of luck

 You just called and just hung it up

 Baby both of us have had enough
