Intro:
He s going back to Georgia
Because he knows time, and time has come
Don t even know if she ll be waiting
Because he s been gone for way too long
How long will you stay
Boy, you don t got nine lives to waste
How long will you stay
Saving time, losing grace
She believed every word he told her
About the troubles and how they start
She didn t listen to the laughter
She only listened to her heart
How long will you stay
Boy, you don t got nine lives to waste
How long will you stay
Saving time, losing grace
She didn t believe
She didn t believe
She didn t believe
She didn t believe
He made a promise to no one
That he could right a wrong
He wanted to do something just
But he was just gone
How long will you stay
Boy, you don t got nine lives to waste
How long will you stay
Saving time, losing grace
She didn t believe
She didn t believe
She didn t believe, believe, believe
D G F#m A (muted)
She didn t believe what they told her, about her lover
Nothing left bet her tears, and theirs were laughter
Forever after
