G C
Picking up her clothes from the bedroom floor
G D7
She dressed in the dim light shinning from the hall
G C
Quietly she slipped into the moonlit night
D7 G
Leaving all her troubles behind
C
He over looked the little things that means so much
G D7
There was no sincerity left in his touch
G C
Anyway she tried to please he put her down
D7 G
He cannot criticize her if she ain't around
C G
And she's driving like there's no tomorrow no turning back
D7
Clinging to what dignity is still in tack
Em G C
Face to face with freedom and determined to survive
D7 G
Destination life
C
On the road she thinks about the way things were
G D7
If only he'd respected loved and cared for her
G C
He had opportunities to do things right
D7 G
He missed the chance to hear her say goodbye
C G
And she's driving like there's no tomorrow no turning back
D7
Clinging to what dignity is still in tack
Em G C
Face to face with freedom and determined to survive
D7 G
Destination life
Em G
It wouldn't have taken much to keep her from walkin'
C D7
But she gave up and let the miles between them do the talkin'
C G
And she's driving like there's no tomorrow no turning back
D7
Clinging to what dignity is still in tack
Em G C
Face to face with freedom and determined to survive
D7 G
