Toby Keith

You've been a ^G part of my life for ^Em so very long
It's ^C hard for me to believe sometimes that ^D7 you're really gone
I tuck your ^G memory away in my ^Em special hiding place
Hoping ^C no one can tell by the lo ^D7 ok on my face
That you're ^C still in my heart and always ^D7 on my mind
And ^C part of my every ^D7 day
Like ^G just last night I went ^Em out for a bite
I ^C tried to have fun with ^D7 all of my might
But even the ^G laughter it wasn't ^Em much of a break
'Cause ^C right in the middle of my ^D7 salad and steak
Bobby ^C Joe walked in with a ^D7 couple of friends
And said, ^C "Hey have you heard from her at all man like, ^D7 Where's she been?"
(Chorus:)
And it ^G , struck a nerve
And it ^Em , hit a vein
You'd t ^C hink from all the tears I cried
And this ^D7 broken-hearted pain
I wouldn't have to ^G carry you around with me
But it ^Em seems like everywhere I ^C go
Some ^D7 body wants to know where you ^C been
Are you ^D7 comin' back again, I ^C swear
^D7 I can't take you ^G anywhere ^{Em C D7}
So I left all alone, just headed back home
As I listened to the messages on my telephone
There was one from my sister
And one from an old friend
He said, "I drove by your house tonight dude but you wasn't in
Just checkin' up on you boy, I hope you're doin' alright,
Oh by the way man, I seen her last night
(Chorus)
I s ^C wear, ^D7 I can't take you
C D7...
Just can't take you
I can't take you ^G anywhere
