E
She didn't see me see her cryin
F#
As she sat there by the window
A E Bb
On a southbound greyhound leavin' town,
E
The hardest thing I've ever done,
F
Was to walk away and let that woman go
A Bb
Cause she came close to turnin' me around,
E
Now I know she missed her Mama,
F#
Cause thats the kind of life she comes from,
A E Bb
Ain't no kind of life I'm ever gonna have,
E
She said she'd call me from the station,
F#
But I'll be gone before she get there,
A Bb
And I'll see her every time I'm lookin' back,
A E A Bb
E
Chorus: Heaven knows I ain't no angel, And I don't always do the
right thing,
A F# A
Bb A F#
And right now I know that she don't understand but
I'll sleep better knowin,
A F#
A Bb E
The only thing I ever loved is on that bus to
Birmingham
Tonight I'll slip back in the shadows,
And I'll sip a glass of whiskey
And I'll try to keep from whisperin' her name,
Buth there's some highways I ain't driven
And there's some towns that I ain't lived in,
And there's some times that I can't get out of the rain
And Lord I can't bare to break
Another promise that I made her
So I made out like I wanted her to go
And I'm better off believin'
Thats she's better off without me,
'Cause I don't want her to see me do her wrong
Repeat Chorus
A E Bb E
Ending: Heaven knows I don't always do the right thing
A E A Bb
And right now I know she don't understand
A E
But I'll sleep better knowin
F#
The only thing I ever loved,
A Bb A Bb E
Is on that bus to Birmingham
