E 
 
Verse 1
 
E 
I was born on a flattop two lane 
E 
Picked up a guitar and every day I'd sing 
           B                 E 
Till I was gone, gone, gone, gone 
 
Verse 2
E 
I should've known that this love would never last 
E 
I see it clearly through the whiskey in my glass 
            B                 E 
Then you're gone, gone, gone, gone 
 
Chorus
 
A                           E 
 I’ve been wasting too much time 
A                           B               E 
 I’m in a big hurry I gotta get on down the line 
A                        E 
 My trouble travels in a song 
            B                 E 
Because I'm gone, gone, gone, gone 
 
Verse 3
 
E 
I’ve been holding onto my past too long 
E 
Drown out my sorrows in all my honky-tonks 
            B                  E 
Because I'm gone, my minds all gone 
 
Chorus
 
A                           E 
 I've been wasting too much time 
A                           B               E 
 I'm in a big hurry I gotta get on down the line 
A                        E 
 My trouble travels in a song 
            B                 E 
Because I'm gone, gone, gone, gone
