G C
[Verse 1]
G C
We sat out on the front steps and shared a cigarette.

That was Texas, ’81, we were young but starting to forget.
D C
We watched the neighbors go to bed.
D C G C
They fed the dog and shut the lights, and we were on our own again.
[Verse 2]
G C
We both knew that you’d be leaving before the kids woke up for school.
G C
You’d never been the kind for keeping, I’d never been nobody’s fool.
D C
But as the sun began to rise.
D C G
We were running out of shadows to hide ourselves behind.
[Chorus]
G Bm
Don’t let go yet.
Am D G
Would you love me one more time, before we raise the blinds and make the bed?

My little train wreck.
Am D
Your eyes are smiling but your cheeks are wet.
[Interlude]
G C
[Verse 3]
G C
We fell asleep just like we used to, legs all tangled in the sheets.

I know you dreamed that bus to Houston, heard you talking in your sleep.
D C
I would have held you all day long.
D C G
But when I opened up my eyes you were already gone.
[Chorus]
G Bm
Don’t let go yet.
Am D G
Would you love me one more time, before we raise the blinds and make the bed?

My little train wreck.

Your eyes are smiling but your cheeks are wet.
