VERSE:
G Bm C G
I see you watch her from across the room
G Am D
Dancing her home in your mind
G Bm C G
It takes more than whiskey to make that flower bloom
G D G
By the third drink you'll find out she's mine
CHORUS:
G Bm
I've loved her in secret
C G
I've loved her out loud
G D
The sky hasn't always been blue
G
It might last forever
C G
Or it might not work out
G D G
If she ever leaves me it won't be for you
VERSE:
G Bm C G
She loves wild horses and tumbling dice
G Am D
She don't have a single tattoo
G Bm C G
She'll drink all the liquor and leave you the ice
G D G
That's too much cologne, she likes perfume
CHORUS:
G Bm
I've loved her in secret
C G
I've loved her out loud
G D
The sky hasn't always been blue
G
It might last forever
C G
Or it might not work out
G D G
If she ever leaves me it won't be for you
BDA K:
Bm C G
If she ever leaves it's gonna be for a woman with more time
Bm C G
Who's not afraid to let her dreams come true
Em C G C
If she ever gives her careful heart to somebody new
A7 D
Well it won't be for a cowboy like you
INSTRUMENTAL:
Am D Am D
CHORUS:
G Bm
Hey, y'all I loved her in secret
C G
I loved her out loud
G D
The sky hasn't always been blue
G
It might last forever
C G
Or it might not work out
G D Em
If she ever leaves me it won't be for you
C G D G
If she ever leaves me it won't be for you
