White picket dream, porch and a swing Coulda tacked my last name on the mailbox Held the frames down the hall, man, I thought Woulda been strong enough to hang my hat on
She drove it home with a cold cold word I'm on the sharp end of the hurt
'Cause she's gone, gone, gone like the gas she's burning I set fire to my last chance Did her wrong, wrong, wrong, and I'm pretty damn certain I put the chisel to the stone and the hammer in her hands Lie by lie I let her down And dug my grave in some heartbreak ground She T'd up the nail in the coffin tonight She hit it on the head when she said goodbye
Wish there was one in the road to slow her roll Pull that Bronco over to the shoulder All that she left was a hole in my chest And sorries that I never told her
Yeah, she's gone, gone, gone like the gas she's burning I set fire to my last chance Did her wrong, wrong, wrong, and I'm pretty damn certain I put the chisel to the stone and the hammer in her hands Lie by lie I let her down Dug my grave in some heartbreak ground She T'd up the nail in the coffin tonight She hit it on the head when she said goodbye
Last straw, she drew that line Looking back now, even I know why
'Cause she's gone, gone, gone like the gas she's burning I set fire to my last chance Did her wrong, wrong, wrong, and I'm pretty damn certain I put the chisel to the stone and the hammer in her hands Lie by lie I let her down Dug my grave in some heartbreak ground She T'd up the nail in the coffin tonight She hit it on the head when she said goodbye
