When You Leave That Way You Can Never Go Back - Confederate Railroad

[Intro]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D] I remember waking in the morning, to the sound of the rooster's [A] crow
Mamma [A] cooking in the kitchen, Arthur Godfrey on the [D] radio
Me and [D] Dad were just like strangers, we never did see eye to [A] eye
Came to [A] blows one Sunday morning, so I packed my bags and I said good[D]bye [F] [G] [D]

|[Chorus]
|When you leave that way you can never go [Em] back
|[A] A train won't run on a torn up [D] track
|Sometimes I wish I'd never [G] roamed, [D] oh [Em] no
|[A] 'cause when you leave that way you can never go [D] home

[Verse 2]
Then I met a girl in [D] Knoxville, oh, we set our wedding [A] day
I left her standing at the [A] alter, with a baby on the [D] way

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
[G] Lord I'd love to [A] see my mom and [D] daddy
And [G] what I'd give to [A] hold that boy of [Bm] mine
I'd [G] get down on my [A] knees and say I'm [D] sorry
If [E] I could only go back one more [A] time [D]

[Verse 3]
But I [D] killed a man in Houston, when he caught me with his [A] wife
[A] And I told the preacher man to leave me alone
When he [A] came to read my [D] rights, He said son,

|[Chorus 2]
|When you leave this way you can never come [Em] back
|[A] A soul won't roll on a torn up [D] track
|All through eternity you'll [G] roam [D] a[Em]lone
|[A] 'cause when you leave this way you can never come [D] home

[Outro]
All through eternity you'll [G] roam [D] a[Em]lone
[A] 'cause when you leave this way you can never come [Bm] home
