Chord/Tab song: I Was There

Dwight Yoakam - I Was There (tab)


A x02220 E 022100

D xx0232 G 320003




I was [A]there, I was there, when love crashed and [E]burned,
I was [A]there.


I was [A]there when love came around with sweet, warm kisses.
I was [D]there when it burned into de[A]sire.

I was there when it ran into a raging river,
And then turned into a [E]runaway wild [A]fire.


I was [A]there, I was there, when [D]love came a[G]round,
[D]I was [A]there.

And one thing's for certain, I did all the hurtin',
At love's final [E]curtain, I was [A]there.


[A]INST[E]RUME[A]NTAL


I was [A]there when love came in like a living tornado.
I was [D]there when it blew out of con[A]trol.
I was there when something quickly turned into nothing.
Just a hopeless, helpless [E]dream gone up in [A]smoke.


I was [A]there, I was there, when [D]love came a[G]round,
[D]I was [A]there.
And one thing's for certain, throughout all the hurtin',
At love's final [E]curtain, I was [A]there.

I was [A]there, I was there, when [D]love came a[G]round,
[D]I was [A]there.

And one thing's for certain, I did all the hurtin',
At love's final [E]curtain, I was [A]there.

I was [A]there, I was there, when [D]love came a[G]round,
[D]I was [A]there.

And one thing's for certain, I did all the hurtin',
At love's final [E]curtain, I was [A]there. (song fades out)
