her husband left on saturday for a woman that was half her age

took one last look at her old life then hit the gas , and said goodbye
Am C
in her faded jeans and her old baseball cap .
Am D
all she knows for sure , she ain’t comin back .

G Em7
this isn’t how she thought , she’d ever spend this day
