Aaron Watson - Fools Paradise

      Aaron Watson - Fool's Paradise


CAPO: 4th Fret



        G
For the life of me will her memory 
     F              C
Keep on keeping me awake
     G
This empty pillow by my head 
             F                         C
Is proof you sleep in the bed that you make
            F          C
Just like a fool I did nothin 
       F                    C
Nothin short of helping her pack
            F
Wish I could find a way 

To find the words to say 
   G
To bring my baby back


CHORUS:
                      F   C
I've got a good thing going
        G             C
And she ain't slowing down
             F     C
A good thing going
           G                 C
Showing no signs of turning around
           F                         C
If I could go back and somehow backtrack
    F                 C
I'd undo what I did wrong
                   F
But I've got a bad feeling
              G                     C
My good thing going is a good thing gone



Thought she'd at least call to say that she was okay
'Cause she left me walking the floor
Maybe she was long gone, long before
She ever set foot out that door



I guess over time the love in her heart
Was overshadowed by her heartaches
She didn't scream or shout, she had it all mapped out
And she never even tapped the breaks


CHORUS:
                      F   C
I've got a good thing going
        G             C
And she ain't slowing down
             F     C
A good thing going
           G                 C
Showing no signs of turning around
           F                         C
If I could go back and somehow backtrack
    F                 C
I'd undo what I did wrong
                   F
But I've got a bad feeling
              G                     C
My good thing going is a good thing gone


F                             C
There goes my life down that highway
          G                        C
All of my dreams slipping further away
                  F
From this broken home
           C                       G
I've gotta put the pieces all back together


CHORUS:
                      F   C
I've got a good thing going
        G             C
And she ain't slowing down
             F     C
A good thing going
           G                 C
Showing no signs of turning around
           F                         C
If I could go back and somehow backtrack
    F                 C
I'd undo what I did wrong
                   F
But I've got a bad feeling
              G                     C
My good thing going is a good thing gone


OUTRO:
I've got a good thing going
I've got a good thing going
