Steady As She Goes - Wade Hayes
-------------------------------

This song is on the "Old enough to know better" CD and was written by Don Cook
along with Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn of Brooks & Dunn. I guess you could kinda
tell 'cause the chord sequence in the verses is identical to that of Brooks &
Dunn's "Workin' on my next broken heart"...

INTRO: C D Am G Em D G G

G D G C
Tonight I came home late again, she didn't ask me where I've been

G D
Her bags were packed and sitting by the door

G D G C
She looked at me and said goodbye, I did my best to change her mind

G D G
But she don't wanna hear it anymore

C D G D/F# Em
CHORUS: She's steady as she goes, this time she's not crying

C D G D/F# Em
If I said it didn't hurt, oh I'd be lying

C D Am G
Where she got the strength to leave Heaven only knows

(N.C.) Em D G
But she's a rock, steady as she goes

INTRO

G D G C
It tears me up to watch her go, but deep inside my heart I know

G D
Leaving is the only choice she has

G D G C
I guess she finally got the nerve to give me just what I deserve

G D G
She's had enough and she ain't lookin' back

CHORUS

CHORUS

(N.C.) Em D G
she's a rock, steady as she goes

(N.C.) Em D C G
she's a rock, steady as she goes.
