( G ) woke up this morning my house was cold
( D ) checked out the furnace she wasn’t burnin’
( Em7 ) went out and hopped in my old ford
( D ) hit the engine but she ain’t turnin’
( G ) we’ve given each other some hard lessons lately
( D ) but we ain’t learnin’
( Em7 ) we’re the same sad ( D ) story that’s A ( G ) fact
( G ) one step ( Em7 ) up and two steps ( D ) back

( G ) bird on a wire outside my motel room
( D ) but he ain’t singin’
( Em7 ) girl in white outside a church in june
( D ) but the church bells they ain’t ringing
( G ) sittin’ here in this bar tonight
( D ) but all i’m thinkin’ is
( Em7 ) i’m the same old ( D ) story same old ( G ) act
( G ) one step ( Em7 ) up and two steps ( D ) back

( G ) it’s the same thing night on night
( D ) who’s wrong baby who’s right
( Em7 ) another fight and i slam the door on
( D ) another battle in our dirty little war
( G ) when i look at myself i don’t see
( D ) the man i wanted to be
( Em7 ) somewhere along the ( D ) line i slipped off ( G ) track
( G ) i’m movin’ one step ( Em7 ) up and two steps ( D ) back

( G ) there’s a girl across the bar
( D ) i get the message she’s sendin’
( Em7 ) mmm she ain’t lookin’ to married
( D ) and me well honey i’m pretending
( G ) last night i dreamed i held you in my arms
( D ) the music was never – ending
( Em7 ) we danced as the ( D ) evening sky faded to ( G ) black
( G ) one step ( Em7 ) up and two steps ( D ) back
