Gettin Fore The Gone

One, two

A decade and change on an old bar stool

A different day, different stage, the same old fool

But every night I hide away my heart

It hides the tattered, shattered, broken parts

Behind the same damn old dime store guitar

So stay away if you can

You deserve better than a random man

Hurtin' you would hurt me more than you could understand

I turn these nights into dawns

I turn hard livin' into country songs

And you can't save what was made to be alone

I put the bye after good and the gettin' fore the gone

I put the bye after good and the gettin' fore the gone

Girl, I could hop a train and you'd never know

'Cause I'm up before any old rooster crow

So don't put me on a shelf in your memory

Girl, I ain't what you need and I'll never be

But just know it ain't you, it's always me

So stay away if you can

You deserve better than a random man

Hurtin' you would hurt me more than you'd understand

I turn these nights into dawns

I turn hard livin' into country songs

And you can't say what was made to be alone

I put the bye after good and the gettin' fore the gone

I put the bye after good and the gettin' fore the gone

Yeah, I'm always gone

So stay away if you can

You deserve better than a random man

Hurtin' you would hurt me more than you could understand

I turn these nights into dawns

I turn hard livin' into country songs

And you can't say what was made to be alone

I put the bye after good and the gettin' fore the gone

I put the bye after good and the gettin' fore the gone

'Cause I'm always gone

A decade and change on an old bar stool

A different day, different stage, the same old fool
