Strum
D-DU-UDU
Back  when I said I was leavin
 You told me not to ever give  up on us
Changed  when you got home from
 Texas
 Become  someone I could trust
 Not  a week went by after you said
  that
 I was  already dreading your call
You  slept with one of my heroes
 Said  you might love him after all
 (chorus)
 I'm going out in the  shirt that you
  bought  me
 The  one you said fit me just right
 And  it'll smell like a new lovers
 perfume
Instead  of you at the end of the night
 Love is a whole lot like liquor
 A sip, will make you feel fine
 But too much it turns into poison
 And it'll rot a man from the inside
 So here I am some several years later
 Wiser than when you first moaned
 No closer to where I was headin
 Good thing my heart is made out of stone
 I'm going out in the shirt that you bought me
 The one you said fit me just right
 And it'll smell like a new lovers perfume
 Instead of you at the end of the night
 I don't care if she's sweet or if she's selfish
 I hope she's better looking too
 And I'll hold her all night when we're finished
 And I'll be gone like I shoulda, shoulda been with you
 I'm going out in the shirt that you bought me
 The one you said fit me just right
 And it'll smell like a new lovers perfume
 Instead of you at the end of the night
 Well I'm going out in the shirt that you bought me
 The one you said fit me just right
 And it'll smell like a new lovers perfume
 Well it'll smell like a new lovers perfume
 At the end of the night

Love is a whole lot like liquor
A sip, will make you feel fine
But too much it turns into poison
And it'll rot a man from the inside
So here I am some several years later
Wiser than when you first moaned
No closer to where I was headin
Good thing my heart is made out of stone

I'm going out in the shirt that you bought me
The one you said fit me just right
And it'll smell like a new lovers perfume
Instead of you at the end of the night

I don't care if she's sweet or if she's selfish
I hope she's better looking too
And I'll hold her all night when we're finished
And I'll be gone like I shoulda, shoulda been with you

I'm going out in the shirt that you bought me
The one you said fit me just right
And it'll smell like a new lovers perfume
Instead of you at the end of the night

Well I'm going out in the shirt that you bought me
The one you said fit me just right
And it'll smell like a new lovers perfume
Well it'll smell like a new lovers perfume
At the end of the night
