   Bb                  C
It's two A.M. in my new home this motel room
Bb             
An ash tray full of lucky strikes
 C
A half spent case of warm Bud Lite
Dm           Bb
Counting regrest...fighting back tears
 Am               Bb
Retracin' steps...gettin' nowhere

          Dm              Bb
Callin' your name it's a waste of my breath
       F        C/E            Dm      C
There's no reachin' you across this cold and empty bed
Bb           Dm
Stirrin' up ash's, tryin' to find passion
C         Bb
Where there's no love left
       Dm         C   Bb
It's like tryin to put smoke   back in this cigarette

Bb                        C
Come sunrise guess I'll check out and ditch this town
    Bb
Put a few more miles between us
      C
And keep drivin' till I finally mend this broken trust
Dm            Bb
Hangin' my hopes on highway signs
  Am         Bb
If I lie here I'll lose my mind

          Dm              Bb
Callin' your name it's a waste of my breath
       F        C/E            Dm      C
There's no reachin' you across this cold and empty bed
Bb           Dm
Stirrin' up ash's, tryin' to find passion
C         Bb
Where there's no love left
       Dm         C   Bb         C
It's like tryin to put smoke   back in this cigarette

Bb
I may never know your reasons why
     Dm                   Eb
But someday I'm gonna see the good in your goodbye

          Dm              Bb
Callin' your name it's a waste of my breath
       F        C/E            Dm      C
There's no reachin' you across this cold and empty bed
Bb           Dm
Stirrin' up ash's, tryin' to find passion
C         Bb
Where there's no love left
       Dm         C   Bb 
It's like tryin to put smoke   back in this cigarette

Lyrics:
It's two A.M. in my new home, this motel room
An ash tray full of lucky strikes
A half spent case of warm Bud Lite
Countin' regrets, fightin' back tears
Retracin' steps, gettin' no where

[Chorus]
Callin' your name, it's a waste of my breath
There's no reachin' you across this cold and empty bed
Stirrin' up ashes, tryin' to find passion
Where there's no love left
It's like tryin' to put smoke back in this cigarette

Come sunrise, guess I'll checkout and ditch this town
Put a few more miles between us
And keep driving till I finally mend my broken trust
Hangin' my hopes on highway signs
If I lie here, I'll loose my mind

[Chorus]
Callin' your name, it's a waste of my breath
There's no reachin' you across this cold and empty bed
Stirrin' up ashes, tryin' to find passion
Where there's no love left
It's like tryin' to put smoke back in this cigarette

I may never know your reasons why
But someday I'm gonna see the good in your goodbye

Callin' your name, it's a waste of my breath
There's no reachin' you across this empty bed
Stirrin' up ashes, tryin' to find passion
Where there's no love left
It's like tryin' to put smoke back in this cigarette
