VERSE:
A#
Old friend,
F
It’s been awhile,
C Dm
I ain’t spoke to you in years,
A#
And often times,
F
Boys from this town,
C Dm
Put wheels down and disappear,
A#
Mrs. Cole asked about you
F
Just three days back,
C Dm
And I had no answer to give her,
A# F
I told her that you moved way out west,
C Dm
To write some songs and grow a little more bitter,
A# F
The kids talk about you around here
C Dm
Like you’re some kind of legend
A# F
I wonder if they know a thousand sunrises ago
C Dm Dm
You were eager just like them.
CHORUS:
A# F
But if you ever decide to bring your pain and your pride
C Dm
Back to this side of Oklahoma City,
A#
There’ll be a porch light on,
F
From the post you leaned on
C Dm
Before you wound up on the wrong side of pity,
A# F
And often times I pray for you and often times I don’t,
C Dm
Is it the goodbyes that haunt you or the fear of new hellos,
A# F
You won't stay for long 'cause you won’t stop your running,
C Dm
Wait for tomorrow until tomorrow’s not coming.

VERSE:
A# F
Heard you landed in Tulsa while he slipped away,
C Dm
Is that the reason your fleeing the fields we hauled hay,
A# F
Heat this July or the dark last December,
C Dm
Look in my eyes and you might remember,
A# F
Weed out in Norman, the Stillwater strip,
C Dm Dm
Run far enough boy and you’re bound to trip.
CHORUS:
A# F
But if you ever decide to bring your pain and your pride
C Dm
Back to this side of Oklahoma City,
A#
There’ll be a porch light on,
F
From the post you leaned on
C Dm
Before you wound up on the wrong side of pity,
A# F
And often times I pray for you and often times I don’t,
C Dm
Is it the goodbyes that haunt you or the fear of new hellos,
A# F
You never stay long 'cause you won’t stop your running,
C Dm
Wait for tomorrow until tomorrow’s not coming.
