Verse 1
      Bm                             A
Got a date a week from Friday with a preacher's son
     Bm
Everybody says he's crazy
             A
I'll have to see
  Bm                                A
I finally moved to Jackson when the summer came
  Bm                                    A
I won't have to pay that boy to rake my leaves
    Bm             E
I'm probably going on and on
A                  D                  G
It seems I'm doing more of that these days

CHORUS 1
                    D
I probably wouldn't be this way
                    A
I probably wouldn't hurt so bad
                 C
I never pictured every minute without you in it
        G
Oh, you left so fast
                    D
Sometimes I see you standing there
                        A
Sometimes it's like I'm losing touch
                      Bm                   A                 E
Sometimes I feel that I'm so lucky to have had the chance to love this much
              G
God gave me a moment's grace
                    A
'Cause if I'd never seen your face
                    G            D
I probably wouldn't be this way

Mama says that I just shouldn't speak to you
Bm                                 A
Susan says that I should just move on
    G                               A
You oughta see the way these people look at me
          Bm                                 A
When they see me 'round here talking to this stone
Bm        E                   A
Everybody thinks I've lost my mind
           D              G
But I just take it day by day

CHORUS 2
                    D
I probably wouldn't be this way
                    A

I never pictured every minute without you in it
       G
Oh you left so fast
                    D
Sometimes I see you standing there
                    A
Sometimes I feel an angel's touch
                      Bm                   A                 E
Sometimes I feel that I'm so lucky to have had the chance to love this much
              G
God gave me a moment's grace
                    A
'Cause if I'd never seen your face
                    G
I probably wouldn't be this way
                              D
Probably wouldn't be this way
