Intro (Fiddle):
G   Em   C   D

Verse 1:
G   Em   C   D

I had just left Austin
Cause I didn't wanna fight
She wouldn’t tell me that she loved me So I left before daylight.
I drove up to Abilene
I stopped to get some gas I filled up on tacos
And then I hauled ass.
I pulled into Lubbock
Mac & Buddy on the radio
I spent the night at my sister’s Before I had to go.

Chorus:
Em   C   Am   D

(Well) I headed up to Denver
Cause I had to get away
Had to breathe some fresh clean air
Start a brand new day.
(Yes) I headed up to Denver
And I wouldn’t be going back Cause the way I was feeling
I didn't want her back.

Fill (Fiddle):
G   Em   C   D

Verse 2:
G   Em   C   D

I made a stop in Amarillo
I checked her Facebook page She’d already changed her status She even changed her age.
I arrived in Albuquerque
I saw some hot air balloons Stopped at my favorite restaurant Listen to some tunes.
I saw the sun go down in Pueblo Well l was almost there
I could see the mighty Rockies Spring was in the air.

(Repeat Chorus)
