Verse 1:

Right there's the high-school where we met

And that parking lot was our first date
E A
And her momma slammed the door when I dropped her off too late
Pre-Chorus:
C#m
She's gone
A
Chasing that highway wind
C#m
She's gone
B
She ain't coming back again
E
This ain't nothing

Nothing but a goodbye town

These streets are only bring me down
A C#m
Gotta find a way to finally get out
B
Out of this goodbye town

Fourth of july those fireworks over our heads

And they'd ring the bells of that little church

No there ain't nowhere I can look that doesn't hurt

She's gone

Chasing that highway wind

She's gone

She ain't coming back again

This ain't nothing

You'll be just a memory in the back of my mind
You'll be just a memory yeah
Oh somewhere in the back of my mind
In the back of my mind

You gonna think of me
You gonna think of me
When I'm long gone
I'll be long gone
