VERSE 

 C 
Can we leave? 

Can we get out of this dump? 
 Em 
Thirty miles to Galveston 

Thirty miles and then it's done 

G 
And I believed 

That we had what it would take 
Em 
But the best lake plans can fail 

And the surest levees break 
      C         D  
And make just mud 

G 
Remember us? 

Remember what we use to love? 
Em 
Your laughter kept us warm 

And we always had enough 
G 
And don't you see? 

How we choose our destiny? 
Em 
You're not a victim, not to me 

Perception is reality 



    C 
But if you wanna leave 
                  D 
Maybe you should get up and go 
C 
If you're gonna leave 
                  D 
Maybe you should be alone 
C 
Go ahead and go 

Go ahead and go 
D                G 
But know, I was right 

VERSE 

And now you're free 
Out there on that slippery slope 
All the rope you'll never need 
But who laughs at your jokes? 
You call me 
Couldn't find a better man 
It's not so comforting 
When no one holds your hand 

Chorus 

But if you wanna give up 
Maybe you should get up and go 
If you're gonna leave 
Maybe you should be alone 
Go ahead and go 
Go ahead and go 
But know, I was right 


Woah! 

Chorus 

Oh, no 
But if you wanna give up 
Maybe you should get up and go 
If you're gonna leave 
Maybe you should be alone 
Go ahead and go 
Go ahead and go 
But know, I was right 
I was right 

BRIDGE 

G 
Hate to say this 
C                 Em 
Hate to be this way 
            C 
I hate it, but it's honest 

G 
Hate to say this 
C                  Em  
Hate to be this way 
         C            G 
I hate it, but it's honest 

              G 
And you only want 
            Em   D  
What you can't have  
              G 
And it's not love 
            Em  D 
If you can't stand 

G              Em  
I'm right! I'm right, I'm right, I'm right, 

I'm right, I'm right, I'm right, I'm right! 

G              Em  
I'm right! I'm right, I'm right, I'm right, 

I'm right, I'm right, I'm right, I'm right! 

G             Em  
I'm right! I'm right, I'm right, I'm right, 

I'm right, I'm right, I'm right, I'm right! 

Chorus 

But if you wanna give up 
Maybe you should get up and go 
If you're gonna leave 
Maybe you should be alone 
Go ahead and go 
Go ahead and go 
But know, I was right
