VERSE:
   G
Old friend,
       D
It’s been awhile,
     A       Bm
I ain’t spoke to you in years,

   G
And often times,
      D
Boys from this town,
   A         Bm
Put wheels down and disappear,

   G
Mrs. Cole asked about you
   D
Just three days back,
  A          Bm
And I had no answer to give her,

  G            D
I told her that you moved way out west,
        A              Bm
To write some songs and grow a little more bitter,

   G           D
The kids talk about you around here
       A      Bm
Like you’re some kind of 🏷Legend

  G               D
I wonder if they know a thousand sunrises ago
     A        Bm Bm
You were eager just like them.


CHORUS:
      G             D
But if you ever decide to bring your pain and your pride
     A          Bm
Back to this side of Oklahoma City,

        G
There’ll be a porch light on,
     D
From the post you leaned on
       A              Bm
Before you wound up on the wrong side of pity,

   G               D
And often times I pray for you and often times I don’t,
      A               Bm
Is it the goodbyes that haunt you or the fear of new hellos,

   G               D
You won`t stay for long `cause you won’t stop your running,
 A             Bm
Wait for tomorrow until tomorrow’s not coming.

VERSE:
      G          D
Heard you landed in Tulsa while he slipped away,
       A            Bm
Is that the reason your fleeing the fields we hauled hay,

 G           D
Heat this July or the dark last December,
 A         Bm
Look in my eyes and you might remember,

 G            D
Weed out in Norman, the Stillwater strip,
 A           Bm         Bm
Run far enough boy and you’re bound to trip.

CHORUS:
      G             D
But if you ever decide to bring your pain and your pride
     A          Bm
Back to this side of Oklahoma City,

        G
There’ll be a porch light on,
     D
From the post you leaned on
       A              Bm
Before you wound up on the wrong side of pity,

   G               D
And often times I pray for you and often times I don’t,
      A               Bm
Is it the goodbyes that haunt you or the fear of new hellos,

   G             D
You never stay long `cause you won’t stop your running,
 A             Bm
Wait for tomorrow until tomorrow’s not coming.
