Been playin´ twenty questions with twenty-four cans 24/7 ´til I understand I sent a prayer up for a helpin´ hand But it musta got stopped by the ceilin fan
I´m starin´ at in this half-full bed Lookin´ for a reason that I ain´t found yet
I know how a goodbye sounds when it´s pedal down in taillight glow I know what she said and I won´t forget where she told me to go But, hell, ever since them Goodyears pulled right out my dead grass drive It´s been nights that start with whiskey and days that end in "why"
Like why she finally threw in the towel With her makeup bag and her hand-me-down earrings And why she never felt the need To tell me what I did, why she packed her things And why she left me searchin´ at the bottom of this bourbon
I know how a goodbye sounds when it´s pedal down in taillight glow I know what she said and I won´t forget where she told me to go But, hell, ever since them Goodyears pulled right out my dead grass drive It´s been nights that start with whiskey and days that end in "why"
Whether it´s them "damn, I miss you" Tuesdays That keep me up all night Or them "take me way back" Wednesdays That drift back through my mind
I know how a goodbye sounds when it´s pedal down in taillight glow I know what she said and I won´t forget where she told me to go
But, hell, ever since them Goodyears pulled right out my dead grass drive It´s been nights that start with whiskey and days that end in "why" Aw, it´s been nights that start with whiskey and days that end in "why"
