Intro - E - Esus 
 
 
(verse 1) 
E                   D            A       E 
It's three in the morning on a Saturday night, 
E                 D          A                E - Esus-E 
The laundry and dishes just ain't worth the fight, 
E                D                 A           E 
Headlights are dancing across the living room wall, 
         E             D            A         E - Esus-E 
And that lone distant highway just echos the hall, 
 
 
(verse 2) 
          E           D         A             E 
Now the babies are sleeping on back in their rooms, 
    E                 D          A           E- Esus-E 
And he's been passed out on the sofa since noon, 
    E       D              A              E 
And nobody told her about none of these things, 
    E                     D               A             E 
And God only knows she'd leave there if heartaches had wings, 
     D             A               E - Esus 
If heartaches had wings she would fly, 
  D             A                 E - Esus 
Away like some bird through the night, 
        D         A           E 
It's a long long way from a young girl's dream, 
     D            A             A    Abm   F#m  E 
And she'd surely leave there if heartaches had wings,
 
(verse 3) 
E            D               A          E 
She grew up believing that wishes come true, 
E              D                A               E - Esus 
A knight on a white horse like some young girls do, 
E                         D             A              E 
So she married her the captain of the school football team, 
E                   D               A         E - Esus 
Just like she was supposed to as homecoming queen, 
     D             A               E - Esus 
If heartaches had wings she would fly, 
  D             A                 E - Esus 
Away like some bird through the night, 
        D         A           E 
It's a long long way from a young girl's dream, 
     D            A             A    Abm   F#m  E 
And she'd surely leave there if heartaches had wings,

(verse 4) 
    E               D             A            E 
She turns out the lights and she lays down in bed, 
     E                D               A           E - Esus-E 
The sounds of that highway still run through her head, 
    E           D              A               E 
She closes her eyes and she whispers those prayers, 
    E              D               A     E - Esus 
And falls asleep wondering does anyone care, 
     D             A               E - Esus 
If heartaches had wings she would fly, 
  D             A                 E - Esus 
Away like some bird through the night, 
        D         A           E 
It's a long long way from a young girl's dream, 
     D            A             A    Abm   F#m  E 
And she'd surely leave there if heartaches had wings, 
     D             A             A    Abm   F#m  E 
And God knows she leave there if heartaches had wings,
