"\" strum. "" pluck the strings (ie. pick down with the thumb on the
bass string, while at the same time picking up with the index, ring, and
middle fingers on the treble strings).
During the verses, I like to alternate between a standard G chord (320003)
and a barred G chord (355433) - eg. standard on first line, barred on second
line.
INTRO: above tab - pause - then:
[G] [D] [G] [D]
[G]A little street that don't [D]walk the same
[G]A coffee shop that used to [D]call my name
[C]A rusty old [Am7]swing set,
[C]In the park where [D]we first met
[G]Seems everything is [D]falling down
[G]Don't look the same since [C]she left town
And [C]I can't take seeing [C]old mistakes [Am7]one more [D]day
CHORUS: G D
I'm packin' up.
I'm pullin' [G]out.[D]
I'm gonna [C]grab what's left of my [G]heart
And go where it [D]takes me.[D]
I'm cuttin' [G]loose.[D]
I've gotta [G]move.[D]
C D\
Cause this ain't my town no more
Since Anita got [G]married.[D][G][D]
We planned a house up on that hill.
I had a job waiting at the mill.
Someday a yard full of children,
That's all we talked about, but then
One day she just started to cry;
Said she was sorry, then she said goodbye.
I guess it's time I let go of what's already gone.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
BREAK: C G D D
[C]Everywhere I look, [C]I still see her;
Am7 D D\\\(stop)
I can't take it no more.
CHORUS: NC - G D
I'm packin' up.
I'm pullin' [G]out.[D]
I'm gonna [C]grab what's left of my [G]heart
And go where it [D]takes me.[D]
I'm cuttin' [G]loose.[D]
I've gotta [G]move.[D]
C D\
Cause this ain't my town no more
Since Anita got [G]married;[D]
G D G\...
Since Anita got married.
