verse 2
This morning I woke up alone    found a note standing by the phone
saying "maybe, maybe I'll be back someday"
I wanted to look for you
you walked in, I didn't know just what I should do
So, I sat back down, had a beer and felt sorry for myself

[chorus]

[solo - 8 bars over verse]

[chorus]

verse 3
last night I tried to leave
cried so much I could not beleive
she was the same girl I fell in love with long ago
she went in the back to get high
I sat down on my couch and cried yelling
"Whoa Lord whoa, please help me.  Won't you hold my hand"
