VERSE 1
G
Gonna take a trip to Laredo, gonna take a dip in the lake
             Am
Oh, I'm at a crossroads with myself, I don't got no one else
G
  Impossibility's at the door, I won't be needing them anymore
                Am
Oh, is this the first time in your life, it's hard just to get by


CHORUS 1
  C      G/B                Am
Oh, my love, don't you even know?
C        G/B                Am
Oh, my love, are you really gone? ooooooooh........

VERSE 2
G
Can you see the world through a window? Are you having troubles in droves?
               Am
Oh I think the worst thing I could do, is get back home to you
        G
I put a bullet in my Kia Lorenzo, a kitchen knife up to my face
                Am
Throw me in the deep of Jenner Lake, believe me when I say…
 

CHORUS 2
      C      G/B                Am
That oh, my love, you don't even call
    C        G/B                    Am              G
And oh, my love, is that you on the phone?  ooooooooh........
