Intro: C / Dm / F / C
C
Boy, I didn't mean to wake you
Dm
I'm okay, yeah everything's alright
F
I'm in a phone booth outside of Denver
C
I drove all night
C
Well, I would've called you sooner
Dm
But I knew you'd talk me out of this
F
I've had alot of miles to do some thinkin'
C C
Now it all makes perfect sense
Dm F
No, I haven't changed my mind
C C
I just called to say goodbye
Chorus:
F
You should see this mountain sunrise
F
It looks just the way I dreamed
F
Got my map of Colorado in the seat right next to me
Dm
If it ain't packed in this ol' Plymouth
Am
It's better left behind
C C
I just called to say goodbye
C
Boy, you know I'm gonna miss you
Dm
But we both know it's for the best
F
We just can't keep using each other
C
As a safety net
C
I bet someday you're gonna thank me
Dm
When you finally get a taste of true love
F
Baby, what we had was pretty good
C C
Just not enough
Dm F
So, hear's to tears we'll never cry
C C
I just called to say goodbye
(Repeat Chorus)
Instrumental Break: F / C
Dm
If it ain't packed in this ol' Plymouth
Am C C
It's better left behind
F C C
I just called to say goodbye
Dm C C
I just called to say goodbye
Outro: Dm / F / C
I tabbed this song from Terri's acoustic performance on Cmt's MWL
on 10/23/02. I think I came pretty clost to what she's playing.
If you see any corrections, let me know. The lyrics are right
though, because I copied them straight from her new CD.
