Galveston

 C
Can we leave?

Can we get out of this dump?
 Em
Thirty miles to Galveston

Thirty miles and then it's done

G
And I believed

That we had what it would take
Em
But the best lake plans can fail

And the surest levees break
      C         D
And make just mud

G
Remember us?

Remember what we use to love?
Em
Your laughter kept us warm

And we always had enough
G
And don't you see?

How we choose our destiny?
Em
You're not a victim, not to me

Perception is reality

CHORUS

    C
But if you wanna leave
                  D
Maybe you should get up and go
C
If you're gonna leave
                  D
Maybe you should be alone
C
Go ahead and go

Go ahead and go
D                G
But know, I was right

VERSE

And now you're free
Out there on that slippery slope
All the rope you'll never need
But who laughs at your jokes?
You call me
Couldn't find a better man
It's not so comforting
When no one holds your hand

CHORUS

But if you wanna give up
Maybe you should get up and go
If you're gonna leave
Maybe you should be alone
Go ahead and go
Go ahead and go
But know, I was right


Woah!

CHORUS

Oh, no
But if you wanna give up
Maybe you should get up and go
If you're gonna leave
Maybe you should be alone
Go ahead and go
Go ahead and go
But know, I was right
I was right

BRIDGE

G
Hate to say this
C                 Em
Hate to be this way
            C
I hate it, but it's honest

G
Hate to say this
C                  Em
Hate to be this way
         C            G
I hate it, but it's honest

              G
And you only want
            Em   D
What you can't have
              G
And it's not love
            Em  D
If you can't stand

G              Em
I'm right! I'm right, I'm right, I'm right,

I'm right, I'm right, I'm right, I'm right!

G              Em
I'm right! I'm right, I'm right, I'm right,

I'm right, I'm right, I'm right, I'm right!

G             Em
I'm right! I'm right, I'm right, I'm right,

I'm right, I'm right, I'm right, I'm right!

CHORUS

But if you wanna give up
Maybe you should get up and go
If you're gonna leave
Maybe you should be alone
Go ahead and go
Go ahead and go
But know, I was right
