• Bm

Capo 3

Intro: Bm  G  Bm  G 

        D                         Bm 
It was just another story printed on the second page  
G                                D9 
Underneath the Tiger's football score  
        D                        Bm 
It said he was only eighteen, a boy about my age  
G                                        A 
They found him face down on his bedroom floor  
             Bm                       Bm/A 
There'll be services on Friday at the Lawrence Funeral Home  
     G                                   Asus               A  
Then out on Mooresville highway, they'll lay him 'neath a stone 

D          A/C#      Bm    G  D         A/C#      Bm  G 
How do you get that lonely,  how do you hurt that bad  
Em                          D 
To make you make the call, that havin' no life at all  
C                  G/B            Asus A 
Is better than the life that you had  
D          A/C#    Bm    A  G             D/F#       Em 
How do you feel so empty,     you want to let it all go  
D          A/C#      Bm    A  G      A      Bm   G 
How do you get that lonely...   and nobody knows 
         D                                   Bm 
Did his girlfriend break up with him, did he buy or steal that gun 
        G                 A            D9 
Did he lose a fight with drugs or alcohol 
        D                       Bm 
Did his Mom and Daddy forget to say I love you son 
    G                              Asus A 
Did no one see the writing on the wall  
         Bm                     Bm/A 
I'm not blamin' anybody, we all do the best we can  
        G                        Asus              A 
I know hindsight's 20/20, but I still don't understand 


Chorus 

        D                         Bm 
It was just another story printed on the second page  
G                                    Bm 
Underneath the Tiger's football score
