Verse 1
G D
I was sittin' in my room one day
C
Drinkin' all my troubles away
G C D
When I realized
G D
There had to be somethin' I could do
C
Instead of thinkin' 'bout you
G C D
So I decided to change my life
G D
I looked at my house one last time
C
And said my final good-byes
G C D
I didn't know where I should turn
G D
I put my foot on he accelerator
C
Then I said, "Later gator"
G C D
These wheels I would burn.

G C
I'm going west

Straight out of here

Leaving my heartaches and my fears

If anyone dares to stop me
G C
Go ahead and try
Em D C
Because I am going to change my life.
VERSE 2 (Same Chords as verse 1)
No more worries, no more cares
Let the wind just blow in my hair
I'm going to start all over again
With my feet planted firmly on the ground
My new life wouldn't make a sound
No one would know where I'd been.
(CHORUS)
Riff:
C D
I might even start a family
Em G
Get a dog or two
C D
And maybe one these days
Em C
I'll forget about you
