Trisha Yearwood

It took me awhile to see things as they were
In the light of truth, it wasn't you, it was me
I let myself get used to drowning in the hurt
Against the wall, who'd of thought, it was me
From there I couldn't look over my shoulder
I kicked down all the walls and started all over
Chorus:
And I don't paint myself into corners anymore
In a brittle heart of clay I threw my brushes away
The tools of the trade that chained your memory to me
Are out the door
A(one strum) E
I don't paint myself into corners anymore
When you left you left me with no other choice all
But to sink, to my knees, and cry
I never knew just how far a soul could fall
Like a rock, couldn't stop, didn't try
I locked myself behind shades of misery
But when I let you go I set myself free
CHORUS
The tools of the trade that chained your memory to me
Are out the door
A(one strum) E
I don't paint myself into corners anymore
Chord charts:
E X221XX
A XX222X
B 224442 (bar chord - bar 2)
C#m 446654 (bar chord - bar 4)
F#m 244222 (bar chord - bar 2)

Note-If you're new and you don't like bar chords much you could probably
play this song without the F#m and G#m in the chorus by just continuing to
strum the E. It wouldn't make that big a difference to the song.
