What She Left Behind

C G D Em

[Verse 1]
C                 G
Bottle of perfume left for dead
  D                 Em
On the table by her side of the bed
   C             G
I spray a little in the air
   D            Em
And out of nowhere, she's there

[Verse 2]
C                   G
Hair on fire in the middle of the night
D                      Em
Just like that, she's loving me
         C              G             D
Just like yesterday and into the thin air
          Em
She disappears again


[Chorus]
C              G
  Took her sandals, took her sundress
D                     Em
  Took her ten dollar sand dollar necklace
C                       G
  She left her barefoot beach and her sunset
    D                Em
And all the love we made that night

C                          G
  Took some blame and some time for herself
D                  Em
  Pretty much left everything else
C                  G                D
It ain't what she took that messes with my mind
     Em               C    G   D   Em
It's what she left behind

[Verse 3]
    C                    G
The clothes she wore the night before
     D               Em
Still laying on the bathroom floor
      C                      G
When I found her ring on the sink I died
 D                      Em
Right there, where she said goodbye

[Verse 4]
       C                         G
Half a bottle of wine, where she found the nerve
  D         Em
A goodbye I never heard
     C               G
On a teardrop letter I didn't read
        D                Em
But the worst thing she left was me, and

[Chorus]
C              G
  Took her sandals, took her sundress
D                     Em
  Took her ten dollar sand dollar necklace
C                       G
  She left her barefoot beach and her sunset
    D                Em
And all the love we made that night

C                          G
  Took some blame and some time for herself
D                  Em
  Pretty much left everything else
C                  G                D
It ain't what she took that messes with my mind
     Em               C    G   D   Em
It's what she left behind

[Interlude]
C G D Em

[Chorus]
C              G
  Took her sandals, took her sundress
D                     Em
  Took her ten dollar sand dollar necklace
C                   G
  Left her barefoot beach and her sunset
    D                Em
And all the love we made that night

C                          G
  Took some blame and some time for herself
D                  Em
  Pretty much left everything else
   C                  G                D            Em
So it ain't what she took that messes with my mind

[Outro]
    C                  G                D
No, it ain't what she took that messes with my mind
     Em               C    G   D
It's what she left behind
Em               C    G   D
What she left behind
    Em               C    G   D   Em
Oh, what she left behind
