   Woke up this morning the house was cold
 F2/A
   Checked the furnace she wasn't burnin'
 gm7
   Went out and hopped in my old Ford
 F2/A
   Hit the engine but she ain't turnin'
 Bb6
   We've given each other some hard lessons lately
 F2/A
   But we ain't learnin'
 gm7F2/ABb6
  We're the same sad story that's a fact
 C4Bb6F2/Agm7F2/A
  One step up and two steps back __________________

 Bb6
  Bird on a wire outside my motel room
 F2/A
   But he ain't singin'
 gm7
   Girl in white outside a church in June
 F2/A
   But the church bells they ain't ringing
 Bb6
   I'm sittin' here in this bar tonight
 F2/A
   But all I'm thinkin' is
 gm7F2/ABb6
   I'm the same old story same old act
 C4Bb6F2/Agm7F2/A
  One step up and two steps back __________________

 Bb6
   It's the same thing night on night
 F2/A
   Who's wrong baby who's right
 gm7
   Another fight and I slam the door on
 F2/A
   Another battle in our dirty little war
 Bb6
   When I look at myself I don't see
 F2/A
   The man I wanted to be
 gm7F2/ABb6
   Somewhere along the line I slipped off track
 C4Bb6F2/Agm7F2/A
  I'm caught movin' one step up and two steps back __________________

 Bb6
   There's a girl across the bar
 F2/A
  I get the message she's sending
 gm7
   Mmm she ain't lookin' too married
 F2/A
   And me well honey I'm pretending
 Bb6
   Last night I dreamed I held you in my arms
 F2/A
   The music was never-ending
 gm7F2/ABb6
  We danced as the evening sky faded to black
 C4Bb6F2/Agm7F2/A
  One step up and two steps back __________________
