Gary Allan - Tough Goodbye chords

Gary Allan   "Tough Goodbye"

The inversion chords on this song should be played with only a few notes, and are designed to be 
electric guitar chords, but they will sound fine on your flat top. If the 
fingering is too challenging,
simplify by not playing one or more strings. Have fun!

(chorus)
        Bb        [ch]Bb/E[/ch]
And I’m not quite ready yet
   Bb/D           [ch]Bb/E[/ch]
To settle down or even let
F             F/E
Someone get a hold of me
     F/D                 F/E
‘Cause I’m not done being free
  Bb           [ch]Bb/E[/ch]         
I still have a few roads
   Bb/D            [ch]Bb/E[/ch]           
To travel down and Lord knows
Dm    C                  Bb
I got way too close that time
                 F
That was a tough goodbye


           F
That was a hurtin’ kind
        Bb              C                        F          
Not the so long after awhile, see ya soon, some other time
      Bb            C           F
Where I just walk away and everybody’s fine
Bb  C                       F
No, that was a hurtin’ kind

I got way too close that time
                     F  F/E  F/D
That was a tough goodbye



  C 
I know I won’t find anyone better
Bb      [ch]Bb/E[/ch]         Bb/D        [ch]Bb/E[/ch] 
I....   I can’t keep runnin’ forever
