G                  D                    Em  D
Said now she's gone and I don't know why
G          D                          Em    D
I gave her three good years of my life

Should I run away or swallow my pride?
(No Chord)

Now you are grown so you should choose what you should do
G         D                Em     D

G        D            Em       D
Old man lying on his dying bed
G            D            Em       D
His faithful son right by his side
G                   D               Em         D
He said now you are gone and I will have no one

Em           D         G

Zac actually plays this without a capo in the key of C, but the capo on 5 makes it 
easier for newer guitarists.
