1st Verse

I've changed the presets in my truck
So those old songs don't sneak up
They still find me and remind me
Yeah, you come back that easy
Try restaurants I've never been to
Order new things off the menu
That I never tried 'cause you didn't like
When two drinks in and you're by my side

Chorus

I've talked to friends
Talked to myself
(I've) talked to God
I prayed like hell
But I still miss you
I've tried sober
I've tried drinkin'
I been strong and I been weak
And I still miss you
I've done everything to move on
Like I'm supposed to
(But) I'd give anything
For one more minute with you
I still miss you (yeah)
(I still miss you (babe))
(I still miss you, yeah yeah)

2nd Verse

I never knew 'til you were gone
How many pages you were on
And it never ends
I keep turnin' them
Line after line you're there again
Well, I don't know how to let you go
You're so deep down in my soul
I feel helpless, so hopeless
It's a door that never closes
No, I don't know how to do this

(Chorus Out)

1st Verse

She dresses up her children
And she herds 'em to the car
And drives down to the mega-church
Can't find a place to park
Then she feels a little guilty
When she takes His name in vain
So she folds her last two dollars
And she drops 'em in the plate

Chorus

(It's) ('Nother) (Some) (Yeah) (Oh) (Ain't) Sunday mornin' (Sunday mornin)
(Yeah) (Beautiful) Sunday mornin' (Sunday mornin') in America

2nd Verse

His back is outta kilter
From sleepin' on concrete
And he'd like to have some breakfast
But he'd trade it for a drink
Those early mornin' joggers
They're quick to pass him by
And the ones that drop a dollar
Don't dare look him in the eye

(Repeat Chorus Twice)

Pre Chorus

Smell the eggs and bacon
Hear the church bells ring
Cheerleaders shakin' on a (57 inch) big-screen TV
(And there's Winnebagos)
(And there's trucks on a highway)
And (boats) (sailboats) on the lake
And a redhead freckle-face blows out
The candles on his birthday cake

(Repeat Chorus)

3rd Verse

He's hunkered in a bunker
With a rifle in his hand
Layin' his life on the line
For every inch 'a sand
He's dreamin' 'bout that freedom
That he's been fighting for
And the arms that'll wrap around him
When he comes walkin' through that door

(Repeat Chorus Twice)

(Repeat Pre Chorus)

(Repeat Chorus Twice)

Bridge

Well, I know it ain't perfect
Now there's a lotta things wrong
In America
But I thank God for those
Who laid down their lives
To make this place my home

(Repeat Pre Chorus)

(Chorus Out)

1st Verse

Same Saturday night
Same ol' crowd
Draggin' Main to the Safeway
Then we turn back around
'Til curfew, then head down to the river's edge
Get drunk

Pre Chorus

Ain't nothin' new
What else you gonna do
Out in Podunk

2nd Verse

I knew this six-string
Was my ticket out
No flashin' red light
Was gonna slow me down
Eighteen years old
Everything that I owned
In the back of that truck

Pre Chorus

I put a dip in my mouth
And I headed straight out
Out of Podunk

1st Chorus

'Goodbye'
Daddy looked me in the eye
Said, 'Go where you gotta go
But don't forget to call home'
And Momma cried, 'Keep Jesus in your life'
And I hugged her one last time
Then I headed down the road
In a dusty cloud 'a smoke
Out of Podunk
Hey, yeah

Bridge

A lotta years gone by
Showin' on my face
Ain't nothin' in this life
That time hasn't changed
I chased a lot 'a dreams
Some of them came true
Ain't it funny how the very place I ran from
Is the place I'm runnin' to

3rd Verse

Another Saturday night
Singin' to the same ol' crowd
Still playin' this six-string
Things are different now
I met one 'a them girls
Turn your whole world around girls
And wouldn't you know it

Pre Chorus

Got our eyes on a house
'Bout a hundred miles south
Out in Podunk

2nd Chorus

'Goodbye'
Her Daddy looked me in the eye
Said, 'Go where you gotta go, son'
(But) don't forget to call home (goodbye)
(And her Momma cried,) (Out in Podunk)
'Keep Jesus in your life'
And we hugged her one last time
(Then we) headed down (the) (that) road (goodbye)
(To start a family of our own)
Out in Podunk

(2nd Chorus Out)

1st Verse

Finally got over that song of ours
Stopped chasin' little red sports cars
To check the license plates
And I quit drivin' by your place
Back makin' the rounds at our old haunts
Honky-tonks, restaurants
Seein' some of our old friends
Feels good to dance again

2nd Verse

I can finally smell your perfume
And not look around the room for you
And I can walk right by your picture in a frame
And not feel a thing
But when I hear your name

1st Chorus

I feel rain fallin' right out of the blue sky
And it's the 5th 'a May
And I'm right there starin' in your eyes
And nothin's changed
And we're still the same
And I get lost
In the innocence of a first kiss
And I'm hangin' on
To every word rollin' off 'a your lips
And that's all it takes
And I'm in that place
Every time I hear your name

3rd Verse

Got someone special in my life
Everyone thinks she'd make a great wife
Dad says he thinks she's the one
Reminds him 'a Mom when she was young
But it's way too soon to be talkin' 'bout rings
Don't wanna rush into anything
She's gettin' over someone, too
Kinda like me and you

4th Verse

And she talks about him every once in a while
And I just nod my head and smile
'Cause I know exactly what she's goin' through
Yeah, I been there, too
When the conversation turns to you

2nd Chorus

I get caught in the 'You were the only one for me'
Kinda thought, and your face is all that I see
I know I can't go back
But I still go back
And there we are
Parked down by the river side
And I'm in your arms
About to make love for the first time
And that's all it takes
And I'm in that place
Every time I hear your name

Bridge

Stop thinkin' 'bout the words I left unsaid
(Every time I hear your name)
Stop tryin' to change the things that I can't change
(Every time I hear your name)
In my heart I know you're gone
But in my head

Tag Chorus

I feel rain fallin' right out of the blue sky
And it's the 5th 'a May
And I'm right there starin' in your eyes
That's all it takes
And I'm in that place
And there we are
Parked down by the river side
And I'm in your arms
About to make love for the first time
And I can't explain
But I'm in that place
Every time I hear your name
Every time I hear your name
(Every time I hear your name)
Ooh, ooh
(Every time I hear your name)
Every time I hear your name
