Chorus:
A
I thought the wreck was over
A                      D
I thought the fire was out
  E7
I thought the storm had passed and I was safe at last
  E7                                             A
I thought the wreck was over but here she comes again


A
Livin with her liked to killed me
A                           D
Living without her might as well
   E
At first I thought Id died and gone to Heaven
   E               
In fact I had lived and gone to Hell


Chorus


They’ll tell you to expect the unexpected
Nobody ever tells you where its hid
I can’t tell you how many times she left me
I lost count the very first time that she did


Bridge:
  E7
I thought I’s movin fast and gettin stronger
  E7
I thought the coast is clearer
     E7 
Till I looked into the mirror
    E7 
And saw a set of skid marks gettin longer


Chorus

Solo

I thought the storm had passed and I was safe at last
I thought the wreck was over but here she comes again


I thought the wreck was over
