G Am C G
I was eastbound out of Dallas on Valentine’s Day
G Bm C G
And after five weeks on the road, I’m going home
G Bm C A
And I realized today, I wished all those weeks away
G D G
And you can’t get them back once they’re gone
D G
Once they’re gone, they’re gone forever
C G
And if you’re lucky enough, you can bring ‘em back in a song
D Em C D
Moving on is hard as ever, well and you can’t get ‘em back
G
Once they’re gone
Well, an empty house and a letter is a sad, sad thing to find
After you’ve been driving all night long
And it’s hard to rest your head on a cold and empty bed
When you can’t get ‘em back once they’re gone
D G
Once they’re gone, they’re gone forever
C G
And if you’re lucky enough, you can bring ‘em back in a song
D Em C D
Moving on is hard as ever, well and you can’t get ‘em back
G
Once they’re gone
D G
Once they’re gone, they’re gone forever
C G
And if you’re lucky enough, you can bring ‘em back in a song
D Em C D
Moving on is hard as ever, well and you can’t get ‘em back
G
Once they’re gone
Oh, you know, that you can’t get ‘em back
Once they’re gone
